What costs might I incur when I sell my home?
Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
It is a legal requirement to have an EPC before you market your residential property. Fenn Wright can organise this document on your behalf. This typically costs between £85 and £120, dependent on property size.Estate agent commission
Commission fees are due once your estate agent sells your property and contracts are signed. This is usually charged as a percentage of the sale price plus VAT.Legal fees for the conveying process?
These can vary depending on the solicitor you choose. We recommend you obtain an estimate with a breakdown when making your selection.Do I need to redecorate before I put my property on the market?
It is not essential to redecorate your property before placing it on the market, however, it is a fact that clean and well maintained properties are more appealing to buyers.
Fenn Wright are selling my house, can you carry out the Survey on the one I am buying?
Yes. We can carry out a survey or valuation on any property that is NOT being sold by us.
I am having a mortgage valuation, do I need a survey?
A mortgage valuation report is a basic inspection undertaken on behalf of your lender only, a HomeBuyers report or building survey is a far more detailed report for you to rely upon. Often defects are found that lead to a reduction in purchase price that more than pays for the cost of the survey!
