five months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Stotfold took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price.

How does conveyancing in Stotfold differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Stotfold come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because developers in Stotfold usually purchase 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 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Stotfold or who has acted in the same development.
