How does conveyancing in Tonteg differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Tonteg come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because builders in Tonteg usually acquire the land, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Tonteg or who has acted in the same development.

We are in the throes of a leasehold sale of a flat in Tonteg. Conveyancing lawyers are doing their job but we have been asked to pay an extortionate amount by the freeholder. To date we have issued a cheque for £237 for a leasehold management pack and then a further £118 for supplemental questions raised by the purchaser's .

Neither you or your will have any control over the extent of the charges for this information but the typical fee for the information for Tonteg leasehold premises is £350. For Tonteg conveyancing sales it is customary for the vendor to pay for these costs. The freeholder or their agents are under no statutory obligation to address such questions although many will agree to do so - albeit often at high prices disproportionate to the work involved. Regretfully there is no statute that mandates capped fees for administrative tasks. There is no prescriptive time frame by which they are duty bound to issue answers.
