Buying a new-build home directly from the developer brings many advantages and can prove to be a great option for help-to-buy and first-time buyers as well as for more established property owners looking for modern-style living.
However, this type of transaction can be complex and there are significant differences between buying your new home from a private owner compared with entering into a contract to buy from a building company. No surprise, then, that dealing with a developer demands a specialised approach to property conveyancing.
Put our proven track record to the test
Over the years, our experienced conveyancing professionals have built strong relationships with well-known local and national developers and have successfully acted for many buyers of new-build homes, helping their purchases run smoothly and ensuring their best interests remain paramount throughout the process.
We can liaise with your lending bank or mortgage provider to ensure the funds you need are available when you need them, as a lump sum or in instalments and, as a full-service law firm, we have access to a full-range of legal, financial and investment expertise to help you through the first few years in your new home – and beyond.

Client Testimonials
Just a note to thank you both very much for your help during the sale of Betty’s apartment. I was pretty stressed about it all, especially after the first sale fell through. But your kindness and efficient follow-up on everything really helped me. I have total confidence in your services and would not hesitate to work with you again. Very best wishes.

Nick was at the very top of his game (again). If there is a better lawyer out there, I’ve yet to meet him. A giant amongst men. Respect.
Pete Cunningham
Nicholas Smith
Excellent service again – even better than last time. I was particularly impressed and grateful for the very speedy email communications; they were always prompt but also importantly, they were succinct. I was also pleased at the help given in distilling the important considerations and that Nick identified a major issue with the title very early on in the process.

Mr T

Nick was always very quick to respond to any queries and made the whole process a lot less stressful, especially as it was my first property purchase. Guidance documentation was very helpful too. I can’t fault the service.
