Whether you are buying or selling a home you will require a valuation, please contact us for advice or a valuation. 01512366611
  
In the meantime, here is some helpful information which we hope will assist you with the process:
 
Valuation

If you are looking to sell your property, you will require a valuation. At C&D Properties we can offer you a free, no obligation factual and accurate appraisal of the current market value of your home. Our experienced property valuers will provide you with a valuation based not only on their in-depth knowledge of Liverpool and its surrounding areas, but also utilising our extensive database of recent properties sold.
 
INSTRUCTION OF THE AGENT / PROPERTY DETAILS

Once you have received your valuation, and provided that you are satisfied with it, we will then proceed to prepare full sales details of your property. Bearing in mind the importance of presentation, we will ensure that your sales details highlight the vitally important aspects of your property and ensure that your home is shown to its best possible advantage with the aid of HD photos.
 
MARKETING

Once you have seen and approved our particulars of your property, you will then be able to receive prospective buyers. Appointments to view your property will be made by us and accompanied viewing can also be arranged to show prospective buyers around your home should you require it.
 
Your property is now ready to market, and we offer the following:

 
OFFICE AND WINDOW DISPLAY – External and internal photos will be prominently displayed within our agency to provide maximum exposure to the marketplace from our prominent high street location.
 
EMAIL – Wherever possible, all prospective buyers who have registered in our database will be notified of any new properties as soon as possible within 24 hours of receiving your instruction.
 
WEBSITE – This is updated daily and the details of your property are placed on Zoopla within 24 hours.
 
UPDATING ON YOUR SALE – At C&D Properties, we pride ourselves on our conscientious and proactive sales management. We aim to keep you regularly updated as to your sales progress 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.
 
OFFERS – Any offers we receive are promptly verbally notified to yourselves and then confirmed in writing. Our competent and experienced sales team will negotiate between you and your prospective applicant in order to achieve the strongest buyer.
 
We will inform you of the current position of the buyers and liaise with you until an accepted offer has been agreed.
 
Should you require your sale to be completed within a certain time scale, this should notified to us as soon as possible and we will endeavour to satisfy your request wherever possible.
 
AGREED SALE – At this point you will need to instruct a solicitor, however we recommend that you already have this in place prior to selling the property and, should you require assistance, we will only be too pleased to recommend local firms.
 
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 results of the survey.
 
The sellers’ solicitors will request the title deeds from the lender (if appropriate) or yourselves as the seller and the fixtures and fittings form must be completed at this stage.
 
The solicitors draw up the draft contract which sets of the Terms of the Sale and sends it to the buyers’ solicitor together with all relevant documents. Any enquiries will then be raised, the Title Deeds and Lease (if applicable) will be checked and local searches carried out.
 
Once the draft contracts have been approved, it can be signed by both parties.
 
EXCHANGE OF CONTRACTS – 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.
 
COMPLETION – The completion and your actual house move can take anything from 4 weeks to 12 weeks depending on the buyers, sellers and their respective solicitors.
