This is it. Settlement day. While you are tackling the task of removals or unpacking, we will be arranging settlement with all parties involved to complete your purchase. The settlement process takes approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour to complete.
I remind you that you only have 1 final inspection and I would suggest you do that the evening before settlement or the morning of settlement. You make this appointment with the sales agent. Do try to telephone us early on completion day to confirm that all is in order and that the seller and his family or tenant are moving out. Remember that you are purchasing the property which should be in the same state of repair as it was prior to you signing the contract (subject to fair wear and tear).
As soon as settlement has taken place, we will contact yourself and the Sales Agent immediately wherein the keys will be released to you and you can move in.
REMEMBER - YOU DO NOT NEED TO GO TO SETTLEMENT AS WE DO THIS FOR YOU
After completion your Lender will organise for the ownership of your new property to be registered at the Land and Property Information Office. This office will not be held responsible for your lender's delay in registration. Eventually the deeds will be transferred into your name and will be sent to your bank or building society to keep until your mortgage is paid off. Of course, if you were able to purchase a property without a mortgage, we will send the deeds to you.
