When will exchange of contracts happen for sale conveyancing in Hanworth and am I required to be at the conveyancers branch?

Where you are in close proximity to our conveyancing solicitors in Hanworth you are welcome to attend to sign contracts. However, the firms we work with offer a national conveyancing service and provide as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The signing of the contract is not the point of no return. A signed contract is just a prerequisite for the conveyancer to officially exchange when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Hanworth)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

How does conveyancing in Hanworth differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Hanworth contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because house builders in Hanworth usually acquire 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 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Hanworth or who has acted in the same development.
