I'VE DECIDED TO SELL MY HOME, WHEN DO I NEED TO INSTRUCT A SOLICITOR?

Instructing a solicitor as soon as you decide to sell your home can speed up the process and eliminate some of the stress

Instructing a solicitor as soon as you market your home is a great idea. You can complete their paperwork and provide ID without too much pressure. If you wait until you have agreed a sale there is normally a great deal of pressure on you to go through all the paperwork and return. The initial paperwork is what starts the whole process off. But, having it done at the start, your solicitor has everything to issue contracts to your buyers solicitor straight away, which can help speed up the process.
