This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as FTB of a garden flat in Gresford. Do I receive the keys to the premises on the completion date from my solicitor? If this is the case, I will appoint a local conveyancing solicitor in Gresford?

There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will transfer the purchase money to the owner’s solicitors, and once they have received this, you should be called to pick up the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.

As solicitors, in order to be on the Yorkshire BS approved list of solicitors they would need to be regulated by the SRA. Many banks do allow licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such practice would be overseen by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

How does conveyancing in Gresford differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Gresford approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because builders in Gresford 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 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 Gresford or who has acted in the same development.
