When buying a property you definitely need a Solicitor on
your side. They know all the pitfalls which can arise when
completing the sale of a property and are there to advise and
guide you throughout the entire process.
When you are buying a property, they will communicate with
the vendors solicitor and ascertain exactly what is included in
the agreed price.
Another very important enquiry which your solicitor will make
will be to the local authority. This is called a search and asks
the authority about the things like road access, drainage,
rights of way, boundaries, plans for future development and a
host of other questions.
Your solicitor will draw up draft contracts and send these to
the vendors solicitor for them to study and return as agreed
or with further questions. The financial side of matters is also
taken care of by your solicitor, who will receive the loan from
your lender and then distribute the relevant amounts to the
various parties concerned.
There is a great deal more to buying a house than may at
first be thought and there are also a large number of areas
which need the expert attention of a solicitor. Failure to use
a Solicitor can end up costing you a fortune and turning that
dream home into a nightmare.
