homefile

Comply with legislation

In the UK, we enjoy the unfortunate distinction of the slowest system of house moving in Europe. Frustrating delays are all too common. A change in legislation will mean compulsory Home Information Packs to improve the situation from 2006. We already offer this.

How our homefile works

A local solicitor uses our software to help prepare your Samuel Wood homefile. It's an official copy of deeds, draft contract, replies to standard pre-contract enquires and a fixtures and fittings list. In most cases, all your buyer will need is a mortgagee offer and Local Authority search.

No delay in paperwork

Your lawyer will on your behalf:

• apply for Title Deeds from your bank or building society
• obtain official documents from...

Land Registry

• prepare a draft contract
• compile answers to standard questions
• prepare a fixtures and fittings list

No move, no fee

Should you decide not to move, there will be no legal fee payable whatsoever.

Fixed fee

Your Samuel Wood homefile and Conveyancing are carried out by the same local solicitor, with a fixed fee to help you budget precisely.

Internet updates

All updates will be available to you on our website, so you can see when your Samuel Wood homefile is ready. Follow the progress of your move on-line and you'll be up-to-date in no time!

You could move earlier

As an extra to your homefile, you can also request a Local Authority Search or survey if you so wish. Getting ahead of the game in this way can give you a vital edge once a buyer is found. In fact, it could help you move 3-4 weeks sooner.

Surveys

Whether you are buying a brand new home, a period cottage or anything in-between - it makes sense to get an expert to advise on hidden problems.

Repair costs can be substantial and can hit even the deepest pocket. So make sure that when you decide to buy your new home, your decision is an informed one. Remember - the cost of a survey can save you cost of repairs.
