Selling

Selling your home can be stressful so it is important to choose an agent you can trust who will make this process as smooth as possible. We at Sold it on Line aim to eliminate the stress and make the experience as easy and stress free as possible.

WHAT TO DO NEXT

Buying or selling a home? Do you require a valuation? Please contact Sold it On line for advice or click Value my Home to arrange a free market appraisal.

In the meantime, here are a few guidelines which we hope will assist:

VALUATION

Firstly, if you are selling, you will require a valuation. At Sold it On Line we can offer you a free, no obligation factual and accurate appraisal of the current market value of your home. Our experienced property valuers will provide you with a valuation based not only on their in depth knowledge of Spalding and surrounding areas, but also utilising our extensive database of recent properties sold.

INSTRUCTION OF THE AGENT/PROPERTY DETAILS

Having received your valuation, and provided that you are satisfied with it, we will then proceed to prepare full sales details of your property. Bearing in mind the importance of presentation, we will ensure that your sales details highlight the vitally important aspects of your property and ensure that your home is shown to its best possible advantage with the aid of full colour photographs. Also enquire more about our executive photography packages.

MARKETING

Once you have seen and approved our particulars of your home, you will then be in a position to receive prospective buyers. Appointments to view your property are made via our online booking and diary service. Accompanied viewings can also be arranged to show prospective buyers around your home should you be unable to do so and an additional cost.

Your property is now ready to market and we offer the following:

FOR SALES BOARD

This is the most simple and effective marketing tool, available 24 hours a day.

WEBSITE

This is updated daily and full colour details of your home are placed on our website within 48 hours of being placed on the market.

OFFERS

You will be notified of all offers on your property through our online system, there will be an option for you to rejected or counter offer.

AGREED SALE

At this point (if you have not already done so), you will need to instruct a solicitor and, should you require assistance, Sold-It.online will only be too pleased to recommend local firms.

The solicitors will then write to all parties and the buyers will instruct a surveyor to conduct a survey of your property (the “agreed sale” is subject to the contract and any survey) and the buyers’ mortgage offer (if required) will also be subject to the results of the survey.

The sellers’ solicitors will request the TITLE DEEDS from the lender (if appropriate) or yourselves as the seller and the FIXTURES AND FITTINGS form must be completed at this stage.

The solicitors draw up the DRAFT CONTRACT which sets of the Terms of the Sale and sends it to the buyers’ solicitor together with all relevant documents. Any enquiries will then be raised, the Title Deeds and Lease (if applicable) will be checked and LOCAL SEARCHES carried out.

Once the draft contracts have been approved, it can be signed by both parties.

EXCHANGE OF CONTRACTS

As long as the mortgage offer has been received and cleared funds placed with your buyer’s solicitor, a mutually convenient date can be agreed upon for the exchange of contracts.

COMPLETION

The completion and your actual house move and take between 7 to 28 days depending on the buyers, sellers and their respective solicitors.
