OUR TIPS FOR PURCHASING GET ORGANISED
BANK VALUATIONS
If you want to make an offer be certain that you can follow through by having the below items confirmed:
Don’t be alarmed if your bank or lending institution request a valuation by a registered property valuer.
•
This is normal practice of lending institutions and serves as confirmation of the agreed sale price.
• • • •
A pre-approval of finance from your bank or lending institution Your own property sold, or at least assessed for value and possible sale time You have a solicitor or conveyancer selected Determined how you will be paying the 10% deposit and associated costs An idea of settlement times required before you take possession
BUILDING & PEST REPORTS Before you purchase any property – in particular a new home – it is important that you receive a copy of a Pest and Building Report from a qualified inspector. Please note that this report is a complete list of defects of the home and is very different from the feature brochure that you receive from your real estate agent. Most people are shocked with the report they receive on the home and most times misinterpret the report, e.g. “the home is 24 years old and... is in need of new roof tiles”.
BUYING AT AUCTION If you are intending to buy at auction all the above-mentioned must be in place. Auction day is final. If you turn up to bid and you are the highest bidder past the received price (on-the-market price) you are the instant owner awaiting settlement of that property. Preparation is the key. Understand your rights and have everything in place. If you follow the advice in this document, along with that of your solicitor and your agent, you will be on your way to securing the right home for you. Whether you are considering purchasing property in the near future or are currently in the process of buying a home, through another company, and in need of advice please feel welcome to contact us with any questions that you may have.
Roof tiles last approximately 25 years and need replacing on every home of that age. The point to remember here is that all homes, at one time or another require maintenance. This is known as a capital improvement on the property.
