Ensure your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is valid, or get one here: https://coppenwall.com/epc-reports - Hire a Solicitor
Engage a solicitor early to prepare contracts and gather necessary documents. - Accept an Offer
Be flexible and responsive to keep the process smooth. Stay in regular contact with your agent and solicitor. - Exchange Contracts
Once contracts are exchanged, the sale becomes legally binding. Prepare for final costs and paperwork. - Plan Your Move
Use the time before completion to arrange moving logistics, cancel services, and read meters. - Completion Day
Once payment is received, the sale is final. Move out and hand over keys to the buyer.
Selling your home can be straightforward with the right preparation and support! If you have any questions about the sales process, contact Coppenwall on 01706 489 140, or team@coppenwall.com.
