Selling is generally more paperwork-driven than buying: most of the work is answering the buyer's questions about the property honestly and promptly, since delays in replying to enquiries are one of the most common reasons a sale slows down.
What's involved in selling a property?
Your conveyancer completes the Property Information and Fittings & Contents forms, responds to enquiries raised by the buyer's solicitor, obtains a redemption statement if you have an existing mortgage, approves the contract and transfer deed, and repays any outstanding mortgage or charge on completion.
Why do sales sometimes get delayed?
Selling is generally more paperwork-driven than buying — most of the work is answering the buyer's questions honestly and promptly, and delays in replying to enquiries are one of the most common reasons a sale slows down.
Do I need a redemption statement to sell?
If there's an existing mortgage or charge on the property, yes — your conveyancer obtains a redemption statement from your lender showing exactly what's owed, so the mortgage can be repaid in full from the sale proceeds on completion.
Can I sell without buying somewhere else at the same time?
Yes — a straightforward sale works whether or not you're buying elsewhere. If you are moving on to a new purchase at the same time, that's priced and handled as a linked sale and purchase instead, since the two need to complete together.
