When first thinking of Selling your Property it is advisable to contact a Property Lawyer to discuss the process and in particular to think about any documentation you may have to gather together to more smoothly assist your Buyer to a speedy conclusion to your sale.

We can supply you with the Property Information and Fixtures and Fittings forms that will require completion if the title to the property is Freehold and a further form if the title is Leasehold.

With Leasehold property one of the greatest causes for delay is the gathering together of information that should have been supplied by the Landlord e.g. Annual accounts, Invoices for Ground Rent, Service Charges and Buildings Insurance details.

If this information is not available from you the owner, then there will be a delay (and a cost to you) whilst it is obtained from the Landlord or their Managing Agents.

For Freehold Property you will be expected to produce guarantees or warranties for any work undertaken at the property and in addition any required Planning Permission, Building Regulation consent and Completion Certificates supplied by the Planning Authority.

Delays will be avoided if this information is gathered together at the earliest possible stage, perhaps even before the property is placed on the market.

The above is just a sample of the kind of advice and assistance we can offer to help quickly move you Sale along to a speedy conclusion but is we hope a convincing argument why you might seriously consider the complete services that a Property Lawyer can offer his clients.
