Purchasing Procedure - If you are interested in any of our properties then you should contact our offices at the earliest opportunity.
We offer Independent Financial Advice and as part of our service we will ask our Mortgage Adviser to contact all potential buyers to establish how they intend to fund their purchase.
If you are a cash purchaser then we will need confirmation of the availability of your funds.
Your home is at risk if you do not keep up re-payments on a mortgage or other loan secured on it.
Money Laundering - To comply with The Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds Regulations 2017 any successful purchaser/purchasers will be asked to provide proof of identity and we will therefore need to take copies of a passport/photo driving licence and a recent utility bill (not more than three months old). We will need this information before Solicitors are instructed.
Conveyancing - We would be delighted to offer the services of our associated firm, Jephson Legal, who offer very competitive quotes for conveyancing. If you would like a quotation, please speak to one of our sales team who would be happy to arrange this.
