Sales Protocol Toolkit

Estate agents and vendors need to work together to get all the relevant documentation, photographs and sales particulars ready. They also need to consider any other remedial action to get the property both market ready and sale ready.

Vendors who may not have sold a house for a long time can often be confused by the questions in the Property Information Questionnaire (PIQ). Work with them to complete the PIQ as omissions and inaccuracies often lead to conveyancers raising queries which result in delays to the transaction. This in turn creates frustration for your vendors, delays payments and increases the likelihood of a transaction falling through.

Estate agents who are using the toolkit have reported a reduction in transaction times, down to seven weeks in some cases. 

Use these three toolkit documents alongside Land Registry title documents and plans, details of chain progression, sales particulars and proof of funds and/or a mortgage agreement in principle.
