The Buying Process

Once you've found the perfect property, it's time to make an offer. Your estate agent will present your offer to the seller.

Don't be afraid to negotiate. Research recent sold prices in the area to inform your offer.

After your offer is accepted, your solicitor will handle the legal work (conveyancing). This includes searches, reviewing contracts, and managing the exchange.

The conveyancing process typically takes 8-12 weeks, though this can vary depending on the complexity of the sale.

At exchange, contracts are signed and the deposit is paid. At this point, the sale becomes legally binding.

Completion is when the remaining funds are transferred and you receive the keys to your new home!
