Selling your house

Selling a house with FJG Solicitors Colchester Essex UKThe seller of a house will have found a buyer either privately or through an estate agent. The solicitor should be instructed as early as possible (even before a buyer is found). The solicitor must get the deeds which are usually held by a mortgage company. This in itself can take a couple of weeks depending on the lender so it is a waste of time to do this after a buyer has been found. The mortgage company might make a charge for sending deeds but if the property is to be sold anyway it is well worth getting them early.

The seller must complete a Property Information Form and a Fittings and Fixtures Schedule. These forms will be sent to the buyer giving information about the property and a list of what fittings are included in the sale price (and what is available for separate negotiation). Again these can be completed at an early stage. The forms can be found on this website. Click on the links above for a Property Information Form or a Fittings and Fixtures Schedule.

They can be completed, printed out, signed and sent to us. It is best not to email them to us as the buyer will want to see an original signature on the forms.

Useful forms:
