Conveyancing Corona Update

Conveyancing Corona Update

With the day-to-day situation constantly changing in the face of the global pandemic, you may be wondering whether you can finally buy or sell your home. As of the 13^th May the Government has announced a lifting on the restrictions regarding moving home and re-opened the housing market.

In the last week, Estate agents have returned to work and the government have said that moving home is now possible in England. According to the BBC, it is now possible to view show homes and organise viewings of homes under the new guidelines, and previous transactions that were put on hold can now continue. In addition to Estate Agents, Removal men are also reopening  in line with government guidelines, ready to make moving home possible.

All of this must be done under current social distancing guidelines but the new guidelines will allow all types of property transactions to resume. Therefore, if you are thinking of buying or selling, it is time to get in contact with an estate agent!

Please bear in mind this does not apply if you are buying or selling a property in Wales or Scotland at this time.
