Selling guide
I want to sell a property. What do I do first?
First of all, you need to receive a valuation to find out how much your home is worth. We recommend asking at least three different estate agents to value your home. Ask them about the services they offer, the current state of the local market, and the purchase price you can hope you achieve. Make and plan and how this sits with your priorities and timescales. For more help, view our tips for selling your home.
How long will it take to complete my sale?
Every sale is different. Both your position and the buyer’s position need to be taken into account before this question can be answered accurately. If your home has been realistically valued, you should expect to receive offers within the first four weeks. Then, assuming your buyer has to apply for their mortgage, the exchange of contracts normally takes between 4 and 6 weeks and then completion is between 2 and 4 weeks later. So, in total you should expect 12-14 weeks to complete the sale. Please note that in Scotland conclusion of missives normally takes between 6 and 8 weeks.
What is conveyancing?
‘Conveyancing’ is everything that needs to happen to legally transfer your home to the buyer. You will need a solicitor to make it happen. We have a list of trusted recommended solicitors and conveyancers that we can recommend.
When is the sale legally binding?
The seller or the buyer can pull out of the sale at any time and for any reason until the point that both solicitors have received signed contracts from both parties.
How are a completion date chosen?
When both contracts have been signed, the buyer’s solicitor will request the mortgage from the buyer’s lender. Once these funds are released, then your solicitor and the buyer’s solicitor will consult both parties and agree a completion date.
Where are my title deeds?
Your title deeds give proof of ownership of the property and will need to be transferred to the buyer as part of the conveyancing process. These are usually held by your mortgage lender, and it will be your solicitor’s responsibility to obtain these.
What do I leave in the property?
You are not required to leave any furniture or furnishings in the property, but you may agree to include some as part of the negotiations of the sale.
Do I need an EPC?
In England, all sellers are required to purchase an EPC for a property before they sell it. Estate agents must display the EPC rating whenever they market the property. Find out more about EPCs.
In Scotland, the seller is required to purchase a Home Report, which is a more complete report detailing the condition of the property. An EPC is included in this report. Find out more about Home Reports.
Do I pay Capital Gains Tax?
In most cases you are only required to pay Capital Gains Tax if the property is not your main home.
