There are a few costs involved in selling your property:

Estate agent commission – The commission fees are payable once your estate agent sells your property and the contracts have been signed. The charge is a percentage of the sale price and VAT. Your estate agent will make you aware of fees you’ll incur in your preliminary meeting.

Energy Performance Certificate – You must have commissioned an EPC before your property can go on the market. We can organise your EPC – Energy Performance Certificate, just get in touch with your local branch to sort this out or call us on 01304 626 444.

If the property is your main home, you will not have to pay Capital Gains Tax so long as you satisfy certain requirements. If you are selling a property that is not your main home it is more than likely that Capital Gains Tax will incur.

The buyer is responsible for paying the Stamp Duty.

Your property will only continue to be viewed depending on the offer and your preferences. Will I have to pay Capital Gains should be the start of the question beneath.

So long as you have granted us access to your property your presence is not required. We accompany all viewings and it is worth knowing that potential buyers usually feel more relaxed if the owner is not present.
