Are you preparing to sell your home?

Here are our top tips to help speed up the process of selling your home

When putting your home on the market for sale you are often told first impressions count. You make sure all the ‘to-do jobs’ are carried out. Everywhere is de-cluttered, everything has a fresh lick of paint, the garden has never looked better!

Having yourself legally prepared is equally important. Instruct your chosen solicitor immediately, BEFORE you list your home for sale. Complete their paperwork, carry out their ID checks and have money on account ready. That way as soon as you agree a sale, there is no delay in your solicitor issuing the contract package to your buyers’ solicitor.

Another consideration is for you to get the searches carried out in anticipation of the sale. This is normally the responsibility of the buyer once their solicitor has received the contract package, but searches are now taking longer than they ever did following the COVID-19 pandemic. This could save weeks in the conveyancing progress and only cost you a few hundred pounds, worthwhile if you are buying a property you hope to benefit from the stamp duty holiday. Your solicitor can then issue the search results along with the contract package.

Having good advisers around you will give you a great chance to speed up your sale. Contact us at your convenience if you have any questions regarding the sale of your home.
