RESERVATION FEE
A reservation fee of £1,000 is payable to secure this property.
To reserve the property, you must be in a position to proceed with the purchase, either having sold your existing property (or having an accepted offer in place) or having sufficient funds available to complete the purchase.
Upon receipt of the reservation fee, Gusto Homes (Easthorpe) LLP will remove the property from the open market, subject to the terms outlined below.
The reservation fee will be treated as part payment towards the agreed purchase price on completion.
The reservation fee is subject to a 14-day cooling-off period, during which the buyer may withdraw from the purchase and receive a full refund.
After the 14-day cooling-off period, should the buyer wish to withdraw from the purchase, 50% of the reservation fee will be refunded if withdrawal takes place before the contract paperwork has been issued. Once the contract paperwork has been issued, the reservation fee will be non-refundable and retained by the seller.
PART EXCHANGE/ASSISTED SALE
Part Exchange. On certain plots part exchange maybe considered. Various conditions will apply and will be subject to an initial market appraisal (possibly survey). Properties up to 60% of the plot value maybe considered.
Assisted sales may also be considered as an option. The buyer can reserve the new property for an agreed period. During this time, their existing property is marketed at a competitive price. If a buyer is secured within the agreed period, the sale proceeds in the usual way. If no buyer is found within 4 weeks, one of the following options would be considered. The property price is reduced to stimulate interest; or a decision is made to enter into a part exchange arrangement (subject to criteria). If neither of these options is feasible, the reserved plot would be released back to the market. In both instances various criteria apply and there is no guarantee of a part exchange or assisted sale offer.
