What Do Our Land Purchase Solicitors Do?
Our land purchase solicitors will take charge of your purchase from start to finish, ensuing your interests are fully protected at every stage. Just a few examples of the types of tasks which they will undertake on your behalf include the following:
• Confirming The Suitability Of The Land You Wish To Purchase
Ensuring your proposed purchase is a sound investment is crucial. Our land purchase solicitors will take the time to understand the reasons behind your purchase and ensure the land you have in mind is suitable. Examples of the types of matters we will consider include the following:
• Does The Land Have Planning Permission?
If the land you propose buying has planning permission in place, our land purchase solicitors will review that permission and confirm that it accords with your intended use. If the land does not have planning permission, our land purchase solicitors will seek to ascertain why. If there result of our searches give cause for concern, we will advise you on the potential implication of the planning permission situation for your proposed purchase.
• Where Are The Land’s Boundaries?
It might sound obvious but ascertaining the extent of the land you propose purchasing is vital. Boundary disputes are commonplace and are often hard-fought and expensive, so ensuring you understand where the land starts and ends is a crucial first step in the land purchase process.
Our land purchase solicitors will undertake all relevant enquiries to ascertain the land’s boundaries. These might include reviewing photographs of the land and its title deeds. In some cases, a physical inspection of the land might be required.
• How Do You Access The Land?
Unlike properties, which usually have clear rights of access, how you access land that can only be reached via a third party’s property, or a private road can be a serious issue in land transactions. Our land purchase solicitors will assess the access situation and advise on the possible effects on your proposed purchase. For example, you may need to pay a neighbouring landowner to use their land to access your land or get utilities to it, and you would need to factor that cost into your budget.
• Are The Survey Results Satisfactory?
Survey results are crucial in ensuring everything is as it seems with the land and avoiding costly mistakes. Our land purchase solicitors have extensive experience in reviewing survey results and identifying any potential dealbreakers, such as sloping ground or flood risks.
• Reviewing The Relevant Documentation
Purchasing land necessitates a review of a wide range of complicated documentation, including title deeds, search results, and surveys. Our land purchase solicitors will meticulously evaluate all relevant documentation and highlight any issues that might impact your purchase.
• Dealing With The Contract
If the preparatory work undertaken by our land purchase solicitors confirms that the land you propose to buy is a sound investment, we will proceed to the contract stage. During this stage, our land purchase solicitors will ensure the contractual documentation effectively protects your position and advise you on your rights and responsibilities under the agreement you enter into.
