    Frequently Asked Questions

    There are different legal aspects that should be considered when selling a property. The most important ones are:

    • The property selling process
    • Exchanging contracts
    • Completion

    Exchange of contracts

    To provide security for the sale, and so that your moving arrangements can start to be organised – a contract is agreed. This exchange of contract is done formally through a telephone conversationbetween solicitors. It defines price, date and the machinery of completion. Note the following:

    • Until the exchange of contracts, either party is free to withdraw from the transaction without penalty.
    • The buyer will have to pay part of the purchase price to their solicitor as a deposit to be held on your behalf. This can be forfeited, if the buyer fails to complete the contract.
    • Do not cancel your insurance cover until one of our solicitors advises you to do so.

    The day on which you are paid the money and hand over the keys is called the completion date. Note the following:

    • You must have emptied the property by that time, unless it has been agreed otherwise in writing between solicitors.
    • You must leave anything that the buyer has agreed to purchase.

    We can assist you throughout the process of selling a property.

    However, our services go even further. We can advise you on legal considerations when selling a property:

    The time of selling a house is probably the time to re-consider your Will and Inheritance Tax issues generally. We have a dedicated team who can advise you on these matters and this could save you problems later on.

    If your property has risen in value, you may have to pay Capital Gains Tax on the difference between what you receive for the property and what the property cost to acquire, improve and sell, after allowing for inflation.
