Selling your property

Order a Seller’s Pack

The Seller's Pack will provide information about your property to the buyer’s solicitor. Also, if you are re-mortgaging your home your lender will often want the information in the Seller’s Pack.

The Seller's Pack costs £200. You must pay this by debit or credit card when completing the online request.
Only you or your solicitor can request a pack. We will not provide a Seller’s Pack to the person(s) buying the property.  

Your pack will usually be sent to you within 15 working days of receipt of your payment.
