Stein McBride Property Co offers a free, no obligation valuation/appraisal of your property based on current market conditions. Our experienced team provide a valuation based on their knowledge of the area and utilize their experience of what’s been sold in the past 6 months and properties that are currently on the market for sale.
Having received your valuation and being satisfied with the figures and terms, we then prepare marketing details. Bearing in mind the importance of presentation, we ensure your sales details highlight the important aspects of your property and that your home is shown to its best advantage with the aid of full colour photographs and floorplans.
As soon as you have approved your property particulars, we will be able to commence active marketing and receive prospective purchasers. Viewing appointments are made by our sales team to suit your requirements. We escort/accompany all viewings that take place unless instructed otherwise.
We also qualify any applicant before an appointment is made. The last thing we want to do is waste your time showing your property to a potential “buyer that can’t buy”.
Whilst not compulsory, one of the most effective methods of marketing your property is to have a for sale board, these marketing tools are available 24 hours a day and never sleeps.
Once instructed, your property will be fully marketed by our team. We are open 7 days a week (Sunday’s between 10:00 and 18:00 hrs by appointment).
We pride ourselves on our conscientious sales management. We aim to keep you regularly updated regarding the sales process right through to completion and liaise with your purchaser, the legal representatives, surveyors and mortgage lenders in order to ensure that your sale is progressed as smoothly and as stress-free as possible.
You will be verbally notified immediately of any offers received on your property. Our sales team will negotiate between you and your prospective applicant to achieve the strongest buyer and the absolute best possible price. We will inform you of the position of the buyers and liaise with you until an accepted offer has been agreed. Should you require your sale to be completed by a certain date, this is when you should notify us and we will endeavour to satisfy your request wherever possible.
At this point you will need to instruct a solicitor. If you need further assistance regarding this we would be happy to recommend a tried and tested firm from our panel that we recommend highly.
The solicitors will then write to all parties and the buyers will instruct a surveyor to conduct a survey of your property (the “agreed sale” is subject to the contract and any survey) and the buyers’ mortgage offer (if required) will also be subject to the result of the survey.
The sellers’ solicitors will request the title deeds from the lender (if appropriate) or yourselves. The seller will also need to complete the fixtures and fittings form around this point.
The solicitors draw up the draft contract which sets out the Terms of the Sale and sends it to the buyers’ solicitor together with all relevant documents. Any inquiries will then be raised and the Title Deeds & Lease (if applicable) will be checked and local searches carried out.
Once the draft contracts have been approved they can be signed by both parties.
As long as the mortgage offer has been received and cleared funds placed with your buyer’s solicitor, a mutually convenient date can be agreed upon for the exchange of contracts.
The completion and your actual house move can take between 7 to 28 days depending on the buyers, sellers and their respective solicitors.
