At KM Property, we understand that while we buy and sell property every day, our clients don’t. Selling your home can feel overwhelming, and that’s why we pride ourselves on providing clear, step-by-step guidance throughout the entire process. Our goal is to ensure you always know what’s happening, why it matters, and what comes next.
One critical step that often gets overlooked is signing a Letter of Authority with your solicitor before going to market—or, at the very least, at the same time as launching your property. This may seem like a small formality, but it can have a huge impact on how smoothly your sale progresses.
Many lending institutions are currently taking a considerable amount of time to release title deeds. Without those deeds, your solicitor cannot issue contracts to the purchaser’s solicitor. This delay can create serious disruption to your sale—and in the worst cases, it can cause your buyer to walk away altogether.
By signing a Letter of Authority early, you’re giving your solicitor the green light to request your title deeds well in advance, helping to avoid unnecessary setbacks and keeping your sale on track.
At KM Property, we’ll never leave you in the dark. We’ll walk you through each stage of the process, flagging any crucial actions like this one so that you’re always prepared. Selling your property should feel like a guided journey, not a guessing game—and that’s exactly what we deliver.
If you ever need advice on preparing your property for sale or navigating the legal steps, don’t hesitate to contact us at info@kmproperty.ie.
