So you have put your best and final offer in, what happens next?

If you aren’t successful we will let you know as soon as possible but if you are the lucky new buyer check out how what you will need to do next in this 2 minute read

Great news if you are the lucky buyer of the home you wanted!

Now you need to move fast – the seller will want to see progress so try to avoid any unnecessary delays in getting the surveys and other legal work done.

Please let us know who your solicitor is and ask them to start work immediately, the average sale now takes 127 days to go through and any time wasted can add weeks onto this time.

Complete your lender’s application form if you are getting a mortgage and send them the documents they require – this will include proof of your ID, evidence of your earnings, proof of your address over the last few months and your bank statements, so have these ready.

The mortgage lender will then arrange for a valuation to be carried out on the property. This allows them to work out how fair the amount you’ve asked to borrow is compared to what they deem the property to be worth.

If you’re lucky enough to not need a mortgage then you don’t have to get a survey done, though buying a property without one may leave you exposed to unexpected future issues.

We have a dedicated after sales team who will be in contacted with you, if you need to speak to our after sales team you can send an email to salesprogression@lovepropertyuk.co.uk

Choosing an estate agent? Don't just ask about the fee. The real question is what you'll get for it. From pricing and marketing to communication and sales progression, the right agent can make the difference between a smooth move and months of frustration.

Thinking of moving before Christmas? Don't leave it too late. Property sales are currently taking around 170 days from offer accepted to completion, meaning the countdown has already begun. If you'd like to be in your new home before the festive season, now's the time to start viewing and making offers.

The July property market figures tell two very different stories, depending on which year you choose for comparison.
