New Build Conveyancing Solicitors

New build conveyancing Solicitors

Our expert team of specialist lawyers offer a bespoke service to clients purchasing new homes to achieve the stringent demands of developers.

Buying a new build home is incredibly exciting but it does come with a unique set of challenges. The process can be complex and daunting especially when you are required to pay an upfront reservation fee and agree a purchase price on a home that may not yet have been built by the house builder. As a buyer in this environment pressure can mount especially when the developer is pushing you to meet very short exchange deadlines coupled with the threat of the loss of your reservation fees. There are also multiple and unique steps relevant to these transactions such as building regulations approvals, planning permission and planning regulations as well as NHBC certificates.

How can our conveyancing Solicitors help?

A good conveyancing solicitor will seamlessly guide buyers through the new build conveyancing process and they will ensure that exchange of contracts occurs in accordance with the requirements of the house builders reservation agreement.

Our team of specialist lawyers offer a bespoke service to parties purchasing new build properties so that they achieve the stringent demands set by developers.

There are many matters that will need to be resolved prior to your completion date. These can include considerations such as whether the estates roads are finished, whether the buildings will attract future management fees to maintain communal areas, or whether there is a risk that builds will be delayed by weather conditions. Your mortgage lender could also raise issues over planning permissions or your build guarantee. Should the need arise we will seek to vary your contract price and we will look to amend any agreements that do not work in your favour.
