How does conveyancing in Adlington differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Adlington contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is finished. This is because house builders in Adlington usually purchase the land, 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 property lawyers 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 Adlington or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Adlington I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Adlington in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?

Should you require a home loan that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension 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 consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
