When can the exchange of contracts happen for domestic conveyancing in Wingate and am I required to be at the lawyers office?

If you are local to our conveyancing solicitors in Wingate you are invited in to sign documents. However, the firms we recommend supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide just as detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The signing of the contract is not the point of no return. A signed contract is necessary for the conveyancer to address the formalities when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where a long "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Wingate)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

How does conveyancing in Wingate differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Wingate approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because house builders in Wingate 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 property lawyers 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 used to new build conveyancing in Wingate or who has acted in the same development.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Wingate is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Wingate are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Wingate you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Wingate may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

We're FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the selling agent has warned us that the owners will only move forward if we instruct the agent's recommended conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a family solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Wingate

It is highly unlikely the sellers are driving this. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine buyer is going to damage their objectives. Try to communicate with the owners directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to instruct your own,trusted Wingate conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthe ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or meet his conveyancing figures set by senior management.
