Moving home is said to be one of the most stressful experiences in life. At Hallett & Co we aim to minimize this stress by guiding you through the transaction from the time a sale or purchase is agreed, to the day you move.
At Hallett & Co we provide a personal service with the same
person dealing with your matter from start to finish. That person
will be a qualified solicitor or licensed conveyancer who will
provide a knowledgeable service at a reasonable rate. We will
provide an estimate of our charges at the outset and advise you
throughout on the following :
- Sale and purchase of freehold and leasehold properties
- Setting up home with your partner
- Co-Ownership
- Housing Associations including shared ownership
- Tenancy agreements and leases
- Council houses under the right to buy legislation
- Buying to Let
We can introduce you to financial advisers should you need any advice or assistance in arranging the finance for your transaction.
Home Information Packs - HIPs
Under Government legislation all properties which are actively marketed require a Home Information Pack before the marketing can commence.
There are 5 essential elements to the Home Information Pack:
- Evidence of your ownership
- A Property Information Form which is completed by the seller
- Local Authority Search
- Drainage and Water Search
- Energy Performance Certificate
All of our searches are Official Searches and not Personal Searches which are sometimes carried out by HIP providers. A Personal Search may not be accepted by your purchasers mortgage lender which will then lead to delays in the Conveyancing process when their solicitors have to carry out an Official search.
We aim to have the Home Information Pack completed within 2 weeks of instruction and will keep both you and your chosen estate agents updated during that time and will advise if there are any delays.
Our HIPs are available from £219.00 incl VAT.
