Rebecca East is a practising Solicitor based at Dutton Gregory’s Poole office. She handles all aspects of residential conveyancing, particularly new build purchases and equity release.

Paul Sams, Head of Property at Dutton Gregory, said: “This book is aimed at property professionals who are seeking to learn more about conveyancing for new homes. Due to the impact of Covid 19 on the housing market, there has also been an increasing demand from owner occupiers and investors wanting to better understand the transactional process.

“New build conveyancing is different from buying and selling existing properties, and there are many factors and issues affecting a new home, which is outlined in the book. I am very pleased to see this second edition published, which takes account of the recent conclusion of Help to Buy and updates readers on a number of other new changes.”

The book was released in April 2023, and is available to buy on Amazon MarketPlace.
