Is it possible for conveyancing in Selby to be completed in less than 28 days?

In a situation where the seller is applying a tight deadline for your conveyancing it is advisable to make sure that your lawyer is familiar with the location as they will benefit local relationships and know-how. It is possible that they could have handled previoushouses in the same road. Therefore consider using a Selby conveyancing lawyer. In addition, be sure that the lawyer is on the on the approved list for your mortgage company. It is believed that nearly one in five of Selby conveyancing transactions are held up or derailed after finding out that a buyer’s conveyancer was not on their banks list of approved solicitors. This can often result in the home move being delayed by as much as three weeks. It is said that this issue affects approximately 100,000 home sales every year.

It has been 2 months following my purchase conveyancing in Selby completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. 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 premises 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 Selby differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Selby come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because house builders in Selby tend to acquire 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 Selby or who has acted in the same development.
