This ensures a fair and efficient process for all involved, offering protection against anyone who may not be truly committed. We now offer a higher level of certainty to you if selling or buying through Pinewood, by offering a Reservation Agreement before we remove a property from the market. Once your sale or purchase is agreed you will be offered to reserve which will protect you from Gazumping/Gazundering, etc. The Vendor/Buyer pays a small reservation fee to guarantee a meaningful financial commitment between each party to move forward with confidence that the property is reserved within an agreed timescale. Our system stops either party just walking away or attempting to renegotiate the price after an offer is accepted. If either party withdraw and break the agreement then the innocent party is entitled to a compensation payment which Gazeal guarantee. This gives both parties security and peace of mind that the sale is secure and means that you reduce the risk of fall throughs. **Disclaimer** - These particulars do not constitute part or all of an offer or contract.
