A high street Saltash lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers used an online conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Saltash.

How does conveyancing in Saltash differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Saltash approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because developers in Saltash tend to buy 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 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 Saltash or who has acted in the same development.

I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Saltash I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Saltash for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
