Selling a house or flat in Radstock

At the start of the property selling process in Radstock, your solicitor will assemble all essential documents, including the various property information forms and title deeds.

The conveyancer will sort out potential snags and handle questions from the buyer's side.

By taking steps to work with both sides, including estate agents, landlords and lenders, your solicitor will ensure the transfer of ownership completes as soon as possible.

Does sale conveyancing take longer for leasehold?

Yes, compared to freehold conveyancing. The legal work for selling a leasehold property can result in long delays.

The solicitor acting for the buyer will need to review this leasehold-related paperwork, such as an up-to-date statement of service charges. Delays are usually caused by the time it takes your lawyer to get these documents together.

Your solicitor ought to start this process before a buyer has even been found, because this paperwork can take a long time to gather if it is difficult to contact the landlord or managing agent or they are slow to respond.
