Various web forums that I have come across warn that are a common cause of obstruction in Stokenchurch conveyancing transactions. Is there any truth in this?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has noted the conclusions of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the top 10 causes of hindrances during the legal transfer of property. Local searches are unlikely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Stokenchurch.
How does conveyancing in Stokenchurch differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Stokenchurch contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is completed. This is because developers in Stokenchurch 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 Stokenchurch or who has acted in the same development.
