How does conveyancing in Worthing differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Worthing come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because builders in Worthing typically buy 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 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 Worthing or who has acted in the same development.

I am in the process of buying my 1st house in Worthing. Conveyancing lawyer has been instructed. The financial consultant pointed out that a survey is not needed as the property was only built twenty two years ago.

At the very least you should have a Home Buyer's Report. Given the property is more than 10 years old the property will not come with a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may be enough. The report should highlight any obvious issues and suggest additional investigation where appropriate. Where there are any signs of material issues seek a full structural survey.
