06.01.2022 Do you act for Buyers in conveyancing? Late withdrawal of finance approval has increased in frequency and with the economic outlook growing more concerning, practices should take steps early in the matter to warn clients of this conveyancing risk, as well as the risks of not properly investigating the value of a property, especially for longer term settlements. Lexon’s Initial Contact Letter is a simple way to warn clients right at the start of a conveyance (especially inside any cooling-off period). Send this Letter immediately upon initial enquiry, engagement or receipt of a Contract to best protect your practice and prepare your clients for risks that may lie ahead.
