How does conveyancing in Henleaze differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Henleaze come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because builders in Henleaze 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 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. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Henleaze or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Henleaze I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years on the lease. There is not much else in Henleaze suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
