Why new-build conveyancing is a specialist area of the law

Because a new build property is a new building under construction, there are a number of differences in the process which make the conveyancing aspect more complex than residential conveyancing:

  • You are buying the property from a developer who has a scheme of houses, not a private individual with just one house
  • Your home may not be completed or even near completion, and you have to rely on buying the property on the strength of a spec and drawings
  • A developer may impose strict deadlines for the exchange of contracts
  • The sale will include warranties and guarantees which can make the contracts more complicated
  • Due to the nature of building work there may be delays in the sale completing
  • New-build sales are subject to planning permission regulations and building regulations consent
  • Land registry searches will include rights of way and drains and sewers surveys which can be complex for a new housing development

For this reason, you need a specialist new-build conveyancing expert and Ison Harrison have a team of dedicated professionals with the skills and experience to handle your sale.
