How does conveyancing in Frinton and Walton differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Frinton and Walton contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because new home sellers in Frinton and Walton tend to purchase the site, 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 conveyancers 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.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in Frinton and Walton I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Frinton and Walton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
