Buying Property with Lennards Estate Agents

It is worthwhile checking your credit score is up to date and accurate before applying for a mortgage.

If you have a mortgage in principle from a lender this, along with proof of your deposit, will get you seen as a ‘serious buyer’.

Research thoroughly the areas in which you are interested in buying. Visit at different times of the day and don’t be afraid to knock on doors to see what residents think of their local area.

If buying a leasehold property, find out how long the lease is for. If it is less than 80 years think carefully about the costs involved in extending the lease.

Not all solicitors who deal with property sales are of the same quality. Get 3 quotes and remember cheap is not always cheerful.

We’re not all that bad! By building rapport with estate agents you’ll often get alerted first when prime property hits the market.
