Selling A Residential Property

If you are selling a property as soon as you instruct us we will ask you to complete various documents. These include a Property Information Form giving information about the property to the buyer's solicitor, and a Fixtures Fittings and Contents Form listing the contents that you will be taking and the contents that you will be leaving in the house. The buyer will be relying on the answers given which must therefore be accurate and true.

We will obtain your title deeds and documents to prepare the contract to be sent to the buyer's solicitors, with the documentation referred to above.

We will deal with any additional enquiries raised by the buyer's solicitors, asking you for any information that is not otherwise readily available.

When everything relating to the sale has been agreed, we will ask you to sign the contract in readiness for exchange.

The articles on legal topics published in these pages are for interest only and are necessarily general in their terms. You should not act (or refrain from acting) on the basis of the information given without specific advice, as the principles and laws concerned may change, and their application will vary according to the particular circumstances.
