For
most people buying and selling property can be a
traumatic process - it is certainly a high stress
business not just for estate agents but for buyers
and sellers alike.
The
role of the agents here at ERA Paddy Murray
Auctioneers is not just in finding a purchaser
for your property, but also in trying to take
the burden off the vendor, make the deal more
efficient and act as a mediator between the buyer
and seller.

When
selling your home you should advise your
solicitor of your intention to sell so that
your Title Documents can be located and
contracts for the sale prepared.

Advise
your solicitor of any changes, no matter how
small you have made to the house since
buying it i.e. replacing windows etc.
-
If
the property is not your principle private
residence, speak to your accountant or
solicitor about Capital Gains Tax
implications.
