Step 9 of Selling a House | Completion Has Taken Place

Congratulations, completion has taken place! Completion is the day that ownership of the property transfers across to the buyer’s meaning you have officially sold your property! Typically, this means mortgage funds are released to us and your estate agent will have agreed the appropriate completion date further up and down the chain to ensure a smooth completion.Completion is always on Friday so wait for the exciting news over the phone at which point you have officially sold your property!

OUR TO DO LIST

  • Complete your transaction on the agreed completion date with your buyer’s solicitor.

YOUR TO DO LIST

  • Keep an eye out for your phone for the exciting news.

About Completion

What happens on completion day for the seller?

Completion is an exciting day for everyone involved! Once we have received payment from the buyer’s solicitor the keys will be released to the buyer and the ownership of the property transfers to the buyers. You will need to have moved out of the property prior to completion taking place in order for the buyers to move in.Although this is the last step for you, there is however, one final step; property registration. The buyer’s solicitor will apply to register the title into the buyer’s names which is explained further in the next and final step available in blog 11 here.

An absolute gem of a firm!

Excellent service. Quietly attentive, sympathetic listeners, and efficient practitioners, all that a worried applicant could wish for. And especially unusual in this day and age....

Lyons Bowe are genuinely amazing!

Honestly I've never wanted to review solicitors before, they've been ok and have done their job at varying timescales. From the start, my partner and I have commented every single time when something happened how quick they are, and they're a delight to communicate with too! And their app is brilliant and has made things so much easier. We will use in the future and will not stop recommending.

Professional, approachable, and incredibly efficient

I recently used Lyons Bowe Solicitors and had the pleasure of working with Holly as my point of contact. From start to finish, the service was outstanding. Holly was professional, approachable, and incredibly efficient - she kept me updated throughout the entire process and made everything feel smooth and stress-free.

Excellent communication, chasing me rather than me chasing them

Rhea, and everyone so far at Lyons Bowe, have been truly fantastic. Excellent communication, chasing me rather than me chasing them, very pleasant in conversation and always ready to help. Highly recommend to anyone.
