How does conveyancing in Bodfari differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Bodfari approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because builders in Bodfari 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 used to new build conveyancing in Bodfari or who has acted in the same development.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Bodfari is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Bodfari are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Bodfari you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bodfari may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

How do I use the search facility to select a conveyancing lawyer in Bodfari on the panel for my mortgage?

First choose a bank such as Yorkshire Building Society, Chelsea Building Society or Platform Home Loans Ltd then specify your location such as Bodfari. Conveyancing firms in Bodfari and further afield should be shown.
