RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY

Buying a Property

Our property solicitors have a wealth of experience in purchasing properties in Aberdeen and the surrounding area. Our advice will be focused specifically on your particular circumstances, from the first time buyer to the professional property investor.

Initial Advice

Of particular relevance to the first time buyer and people moving into the area, our initial advice will concentrate on the procedures involved in purchasing a property. This will generally include advice on "noting interests", closing dates, negotiation, survey reports and the price to offer.

Making an Offer

Once you have located a property that is suitable for you the next step is to decide whether to have a survey carried out or submit an offer "subject to survey". We have good relationships with local surveyors and we can advise you on the different types of survey, and instruct a survey on your behalf.

Conveyancing

Once your offer for a property has been accepted we attend to all of the necessary work required to complete your purchase. This includes examining the Title to the Property and advising you what the title comprises, checking Local Authority and Property Searches, complying with all the requirements of your mortgage lender and registering your title following completion in the Land Register of Scotland.
