How does conveyancing in Billingshurst differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Billingshurst contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because developers in Billingshurst tend to 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 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Billingshurst or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one near me in Billingshurst I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Billingshurst suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

My husband and I are new on the property ladder - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent has warned us that the vendor will only go ahead if we instruct their chosen conveyancers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a local conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Billingshurst
It is highly unlikely the owners are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they understand (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to use your preferred Billingshurst conveyancing firm - not the ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing targets pre-set by HQ.
