An Essential New Build Conveyancing Checklist
The process of buying a new-build property is not necessarily easier than buying an existing property.
People think that a brand new property and the absence of a property chain, at least on the part of the seller, simplifies the process, but there are additional complexities such as the developer owning the whole site and therefore selling individual plots.
