Viewings - All viewings are booked by an appointment. Prospective buyers prefer viewings during daytime in order to see the external of the property such as gardens.

Receiving an Offer - When a prospective buyer offers on your property, we will inform you immediately and negotiate on your behalf.

Offer Acceptance - Once a price has been agreed by you, the date of exchange of contracts along with completion dates need to be set. You will need to instruct your solicitor to start process.

Draft Contracts - Your solicitor will send out a draft contract to the purchaser's solicitor along with supporting paperwork (where applicable) i.e.: title deeds, copy of Lease, fixtures and fittings list, seller's questionnaire, planning consent, guarantees, copy of building regulations and share of freehold certificate. The seller’s solicitor carries out preliminary enquiries and orders a Land Registry search.

Contract Approval - When all preliminary enquiries from the draft contract and local search queries have been settled, the buyer’s solicitor will approve the contracts provided they are satisfied to answers to the enquiries. By this time the purchaser would have received (if applicable) mortgage offer as well.

Exchange of Contracts – Both parties are ready to proceed further and contracts are exchanged. The contract is signed by buyer and seller and the deposit, (usually 10% of the purchase price), is either telegraphically transferred or paid in the form of a bankers draft by the buyer's solicitor. The completion date is also set during exchange of contracts.

Completion - This is generally set a few days to a few weeks after exchange of contracts, depending on buyers and sellers requirements. Your solicitor will receive outstanding monies from buyer’s solicitor (usually 90%) to your solicitor's account for completion to take place.
