Selling your home

KNOW YOUR LEGAL OBLIGATIONS

From the 1 June 2007 in England and Wales, the law will require sellers of residential property or their estate agents to have a Home Information Pack before putting their homes up for sale.

If you are using an estate agent get them to use this Estate agents contract[/link] from Which, just print it out. If they refuse then walk away.

Always instruct estate agents as a [b]Sole agency[/b], this means that your estate agents are entitled to commission ONLY if they introduce your buyer and bring about the sale of your property.

Sole agency does not prevent you from selling your house privately. You can place an ad in your local newspaper or use an online property advertising service.

Estate agents, can only market your home if they have a valid Home Information Pack for that property to give to potential buyers.

The documents that have to be included in a Pack from the first day of marketing include-

an index,

an Energy Performance Certificate,

the sales statement and evidence of title.

For the other compulsory documents

– the local property searches and certain documents for leasehold properties –

Kind regards
Chris
