How does conveyancing in Holly Village differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Holly Village come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because house builders in Holly Village 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 Holly Village or who has acted in the same development.

I own a leasehold flat in Holly Village. Conveyancing was finalised in 2011. I have read on various advice forums that I mustn’t allow the lease length get too low. Why is that a problem?

Holly Village domestic long term leases are for a set term - normally 99 years when they are first granted. However a significant appartments in Holly Village were built or converted in the 60’s and so such leases now have less than eighty years remaining. That may sound like a long time however Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage institutions generally require leases to have at least seventy five years unexpired to be mortgageable. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need a lease extension if you are approaching seventy five years. To optimize your property value you should be thinking about whether to extend your lease long before you come to sell it. There are also advantages to doing so before the lease reaches even 80 years as when the lease is less than eighty years the premium you have to pay to extend starts to increase.
