Residential Sales & Purchases

Overview Can we help?

You’ve found your new home and want to move in.

You have a buyer for your house and want to get the deal completed.

This is where we come in. Our job is to complete the legal formalities so you can move in or move on depending on whether you are buying or selling or both.

The key elements of the job we will do for you include:

Ensuring the title to the property is clear, accurate and that it can be validly transferred to the purchaser
Ensuring any previous alterations or extensions were completed lawfully thereby avoiding potential issues
Undertaking a wide range of searches against the property so that you are aware of any plans or changes to the locality which may affect your enjoyment of the property or its potential value and therefore your decision to proceed.
If the property is leasehold - reviewing the terms and duration of the lease and identifying any restrictions and potential liabilities.
If borrowing – acting for your lender and complying with their requirements
If selling - ensuring any outstanding loans and charges on the property are discharged
Completing the necessary SDLT returns
Storing the deeds to your property for safekeeping

We have prepared a simple Buying and Selling Questionnaire. Please click on the button "Start the Process" to complete this. Once we have the details of your property we can confirm the costs of the transaction and start working for you.

If you are buying a leasehold property we have also prepared a brief questionnaire to enable us to review the lease terms effectively.
