How does conveyancing in Kilgetty differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Kilgetty contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because developers in Kilgetty usually acquire the real estate, 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 Kilgetty or who has acted in the same development.
I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Kilgetty I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Kilgetty for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
Should I use a Kilgetty conveyancing lawyer in close proximity to the house I am buying? I have an old university friend who can perform the legal work but they are based 400miles away.

If if people you trust instructed your friend and they were impressed that must surpass using an unknown Kilgetty conveyancing solicitor just because they are based in the area.
