The Role Of House Sale Solicitors
When you sell a house, there are a number of incredibly important legal steps that must be adhered to. Your house sale solicitor’s job is to make sure that the sale not only proceeds as planned, but also that it complies with the applicable laws.
Your house sale solicitor will undertake a wide variety of tasks throughout your transaction, including the following:
- Draft and review the contract for sale
- Handle enquiries raised by the buyer’s solicitor
- Manage title deeds and Land Registry documents
- Deal with mortgage redemption and any charges on the property
- Exchange and complete the sale on your behalf
- Ensure that funds are safely transferred
With our experienced team of house sale solicitors on your side, you can rest assured that every detail, from the first enquiry to the final completion, is handled efficiently and professionally.
The House Sale Process Explained
Selling a property involves several key stages. Our house sale solicitors will guide you through each step, answering your queries and dealing with your concerns as the transaction unfolds.
A general overview of the house sale process is as follows:
• Instruction
The house sale process begins when you instruct our house sale solicitors to act on your behalf. We will send you the initial paperwork to confirm the sale details and verify your identity, and provide you with a quote for our fees.
• Drafting The Contract
We will then obtain your title deeds and prepare the draft contract for sale, property information forms, and any relevant warranties or certificates. We will send all relevant documentation to the buyer’s solicitors for review.
• Responding To Enquiries
Once the buyer’s solicitor has reviewed the contract, they will likely raise enquiries, which are detailed legal questions about the property. We will respond promptly and accurately to the buyer’s enquiries to avoid delays.
• Exchange Of Contracts
When both parties have agreed on the contractual terms, contracts can be exchanged. At this point, the sale becomes legally binding, and a party seeking to withdraw from the transaction may need to pay damages to the other.
• Completion
On the completion date, we receive the remainder of the purchase price from the buyer’s solicitors, redeem any outstanding mortgage, pay estate agent fees if applicable, and transfer the balance to you. The property is officially sold, and keys are released to the buyer.
Throughout the house sale process, you will have a dedicated house sale solicitor managing your transaction and offering a personal, reliable service.
