How does conveyancing in Yelverton differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Yelverton contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Yelverton typically purchase the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Yelverton or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Yelverton I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Yelverton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.
