• Can I Exchange Contacts Whilst Awaiting The Removal Of A Home Rights Notice From Previous Owners, It’s Been 7years Since They Owned The Property

    By Guest on 28th Oct 2019

    Our previous solicitor failed to lodge the paperwork to remove the home rights notice for the previous owners when we bought the property 7 years ago, we’re now selling and it’s been sent to land reg, can we exchange and complete before it’s officially removed?

    If you are selling it is reasonably safe to do so providing you are fairly sure it will be removed in good time prior to the completion. Worst case scenario if it cannot be removed you default on the contract - be prepared to return the deposit and pay any damages that result.
