How does conveyancing in Havering differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Havering come to us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because builders in Havering tend to acquire 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 Havering or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Havering I like with a park and railway links nearby, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Havering suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

My wife and I are disposing of a Havering ground floor flat we inherited ten years ago in 2010. I have over a decades worth of conveyancing know-how and, now retired, see no reason not to do my own conveyancing.
