Selling - Instruct your Solicitor
HOMESpartnership can recommend a selection of solicitors and conveyancers with whom we have developed great relationships, ensuring your transaction proceeds smoothly.
Your Solicitor will receive details of the transaction from your agent, but you will also need to contact them to give them authority to proceed.
Obtain Title Deeds
Your Solicitor will apply for your Title Deeds. Theses are normally held by a Building Society or Bank if your have a Mortgage.
Questionnaire
You will be asked to complete a questionnaire and list of fixtures and fittings to enable your Solicitor to give Property Information to the Buyer's Solicitors.
Preparation of Contract
On receipt of your Deeds your Solicitor will prepare a draft Contract and send this together with the other documentation to the Buyer's Solicitors.
Approval of Contract and Signing Up
When the Buyer's Solicitors have dealt with all the searches and investigation of title, they will approve the Contract and send one copy to your Solicitor. They will then ask you to call at the office or will send the document to you to sign. At that time they will take your instructions concerning a completion date. Once you have signed there may sometimes be a delay until all the other transactions in the chain are ready to exchange.
Exchange
Exchange takes place and the date for completion is inserted in the Contract. This is the date on or before which you must vacate your property. (The property must still be insured until completion takes place.)
Signing Final Document and Approval of Agents Account
You will be asked to call at your Solicitor's office to sign the final document shortly before completion or alternatively it will be sent to you for signature. They will also ask you to approve your agents commission account and will then settle this from the sale proceeds at completion.
Completion
On completion your Solicitor will report to you and let you have a statement together with a cheque for the net sale proceeds.
