Found a place you’d love to call home? Once you and your Plumpton real estate agent have considered other comparable properties, take a deep breath and make an offer!
- Avoid the temptation to make an offer before your finances are arranged and approved. Even though you may wish to secure the property, it’s safer to talk to your lending institution first.
- Ensure you have a legal advisor
- Once your offer has been accepted your solicitor will arrange for a copy of the contract of sale for the property you choose. You should then review and ensure that you are satisfied with the terms and conditions of the sale are reasonable and that you are in a position to meet those terms.
- Following your solicitors or conveyancer’s advice conduct a building and pest inspection to make sure you are aware of any major defects and pest concerns e.g.: white ant, termites and what they might cost to fix. You are now able to make an informed decision to proceed with the purchase of the property with help from your real estate agent in Plumpton.
- Once negotiations have been finalized, you will be required to sign the sale contract and pay a 10% deposit. Your deposit will be held in a trust account until settlement. Contracts will then be unconditionally exchanged.
Make An Offer
The Property Stock and Business Agents Regulation 2003 (Schedule 2, Section 3) states that any offer an agent receives must be submitted in writing to their owner by the agent. Should you choose to submit your offer in writing, Hilton Parkes Real Estate will present your offer to the owner of the above property. Hilton Parkes Real Estate must keep a copy of this form, for audit purposes.
