I“t’s so easy to move to the home of your dreams courtesy of Harron Homes’ Part Exchange scheme.
I’ve had my property valued already, so why is your Part Exchange offer less?
This could be down to a number of factors. Sometimes estate agents will slightly over- inflate the value in line with their targets. Estate agents may put a property on the market at a higher value then reduce the price after a number of weeks.
What happens if my new house isn’t ready and the people want to move into my old one?
One of the benefits of our Part Exchange scheme is that you can stay in your home until your new one is ready.
Do I need to find any paperwork on my current property?
Yes – you will need to provide any warranty information on windows, doors and conservatories, along with planning permission and buildings regulations. You’ll also need to provide any paperwork for extensions, garage to room conversions or loft conversions.
If your property is leasehold or has a management company interest in it, then you must provide the management pack, at a cost to yourself. You will also need to provide a gas safety certificate and an electrical safety certificate – both of these will need to be dated within the last year. We need this information for when we sell the property on.
Do I need a ‘for sale’ board up?
Yes, you will need to allow ‘for sale’ boards to go up as well as permitting viewings for potential buyers.
I need to use the Help to Buy scheme – can I still do Part Exchange?
Unfortunately, the Government will not allow us to assist with Part Exchange in conjunction with the Help to Buy Scheme. However, we do have our own Home Mover scheme. This will allow you to reserve your new property with us, whilst we market your property for sale for a period of four to six weeks.
