How does conveyancing in Lynmouth differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Lynmouth approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because builders in Lynmouth typically 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 Lynmouth or who has acted in the same development.
Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Lynmouth before retaining solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. My surveyor has said that some mortgage companies tend refuse to issue a loan on such a property.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Lynmouth. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
