I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and have to be out of my let out flat in Bradford On Avon by the end of next month. Conveyancing on my purchase is underway. How realistic is it to complete in six weeks as I wish to avoid having to find short term accommodation?

How does conveyancing in Bradford On Avon differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Bradford On Avon approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because new home sellers in Bradford On Avon typically purchase 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 Bradford On Avon or who has acted in the same development.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Bradford On Avon is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Bradford On Avon you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly.

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
