Once you have found your perfect home, request a copy of the Home Report from the estate agent. Our property solicitors can advise you on its terms and, if your offer is accepted, will raise enquiries with the seller’s solicitor based on this, together with the title deeds and other items provided by the seller’s solicitor.
If you are interested in a property but not prepared to commit to making a formal offer, we can note interest on your behalf. This will serve to notify the seller and estate agent of your interest, and you should be kept informed of matters concerning the property, such as closing dates.
When you are ready, we will submit a formal offer on your behalf. The offer will contain the offered purchase price, the date of entry and any other conditions or qualifications you may wish to be included. The seller will consider your offer and possible counter offers may be exchanged until an agreement is reached. Our property law solicitors have years of experience in negotiating property purchases and will represent your best interests throughout this process.
Once an agreement is reached, this will form the binding contract between the seller and purchaser, known as concluded missives. Our property law experts will then proceed with the necessary conveyancing formalities and perform the relevant checks and searches. If these are all in order, payment of funds will be made and ownership of the property will be transferred to you. We will also prepare the title deed in your favour and ensure that your title is registered in the Land Register.
Our solicitors carry out conveyancing in Glasgow and throughout Scotland, and will ensure this process is as quick as possible.
Whether you are a first time buyer in Glasgow or anywhere else in Scotland, Jones Whyte aims to make the purchase of your first home a smooth and stress free experience.
