I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in February 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, are being difficult. The Haslingden solicitor who is on the conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but are requiring a building regulation certificate.

How does conveyancing in Haslingden differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Haslingden approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because new home sellers in Haslingden tend to purchase the real estate, 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 Haslingden or who has acted in the same development.
