How does conveyancing in Willen differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Willen approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because house builders in Willen usually buy the site, 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 Willen or who has acted in the same development.
I have been advised by a number of selling agents in Willen to locate a property lawyer using your seach tool. Is there a financial upside for Estate Agents to promote your site over and above alternative conveyancing organisations?
We refuse to make any commission for directing people to this site. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission because members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
