How does conveyancing in Tanworth In Arden differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Tanworth In Arden come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because new home sellers in Tanworth In Arden 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.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Tanworth In Arden I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease.

Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
