I am intent on selling our house in Bramley and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used a national conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Bramley. We have lived in Bramley for six years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to seek clarification need.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything.

How does conveyancing in Bramley differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Bramley contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because new home sellers in Bramley usually 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 conveyancers 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 Bramley or who has acted in the same development.
