The Government have today published guidelines aimed at getting the housing market back in action. Due to the continuing requirements for social distancing, this is by no means “business as usual”. However, it is enough to ease the deadlock caused by the tough and necessary lockdown conditions imposed on 23rd March 2020. The lifting of some restrictions previously imposed will allow for house moves, viewings and valuations to take place safely.
The guidelines include advice in relation to:
- Preparing your property for sale
- Arranging and conducting property viewings
- Making and accepting offers on property
- Property Searches and Surveys
- The Conveyancing Process
- Preparing for your move
