When selling your house, it is important to consider several points to ensure that this is done legally and correctly. It is usually advisable to address your finances first and to make sure you can meet the costs of selling your property, such as the legal and estate agent fees.
Before the sale process can start, you may be asked to provide a number of documents, some of which your solicitor can help you with. These could include the Deeds for the property if it is not registered with HM Land Registry, planning permissions and Building Regulation certificates and any other documentation relevant to the property. Your solicitor in North Wales will also ask you to provide identification documents such as passports; these are required as part of the legally required money laundering checks.
Once a sale has been agreed via the Estate Agent, you should select a solicitor to complete the conveyancing work. These firms will help you with each stage of the house sale such as dealing with legal enquiries, the exchange of contracts and the transfer of property ownership from the seller to the buyer. Solicitors will also process any documentation and will receive the payment for the house from the buyer. They will then transfer these monies to the seller to an agreed bank account.
