Buying a Property in 10 Steps

Buying a Property in 10 Steps

Purchasing real estate in the United Kingdom can be a complex exercise. With an expert fighting in your corner, however, you can avoid the stress and enjoy a much smoother transaction. With all property sales, the entire process can be broken down into the following 10 steps:

  1. Calculate Your Budget
    Understanding your budget is key. It's important to review your payslips and bank statements to see how much you can afford.

  2. Find Your Ideal Mortgage
    Every borrower has unique needs. We research your finances and deliver a tailored home loan as an Agreement in Principle (AIP).

  3. Make a Property Offer

    Find your perfect property and leverage your AIP to make an offer. Once accepted, we will help with your mortgage application.

  4. Get Legal Support
    Every mortgage requires a solicitor. We connect you with legal experts to handle paperwork, manage searches, and deal with sellers.

  5. Valuations and Surveys
    Property checks are essential. Valuations offer an accurate value estimate, and surveys provide information on property condition.

  6. Official Mortgage Offer
    Your lender will issue you with a mortgage offer. You have seven days to review this offer and decide whether to accept it.

  7. Protect Yourself
    Limit your risk by taking out insurance. We can help you with building insurance, mortgage insurance, critical illness cover, and more.

  8. Completion Day

    Ownership is passed to you. On the completion date, contracts are signed and exchanged, and funds are transferred between parties.

  9. Registration and Payments
    Final steps are required. After the contract is signed, your solicitor registers the sale, and you pay stamp duty and other fees.

  10. Collect Your Keys and Move In
    Congratulations, you're the proud owner of a new home. Organise the movers, collect the keys, and break out the champagne.
