4 months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Balby concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

How does conveyancing in Balby differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Balby come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is ready to move into. This is because developers in Balby tend to purchase 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 Balby or who has acted in the same development.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Balby I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Balby in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
