Whether you are purchasing for pleasure or re-locating we will be happy to discuss your requirements with you prior to viewing. When we have found your ideal property and a price agreed, a contract will then be drawn up between yourselves and the seller of the property (using a solicitor) this confirms the price and any other details that may have been agreed upon. At this point a deposit is paid to the seller and dates of your future payments are agreed on. Two passport photographs are required of the person(s) whose name(s) will be on the title deeds as well as a photocopy of your passport(s). Should you decide you would like us to collect the title deeds on your behalf we will arrange Power of Attorney with you at this time. We will then continue with transactions such as permission from, the Military and registration of the property into your name(s)
