- carry out usual searches and make usual enquiries of the Listed Property or engage Professional Advisers to do the same; and
- if applicable, consider with the chosen mortgage provider that the Listed Property would be deemed suitable for mortgage lending purposes.
2.2 We assume you act like a prudent Purchaser.
The conditions assume that the
Purchaser has acted like a prudent Purchaser. If you choose to buy a Listed Property
through a Property Sale without taking these normal precautions, you do so at your
own risk.
3 Property Sale Process
The following section applies to Purchasers:3.1 Carry out your own due diligence.
A Listed Property, offered by an Estate Agent for
sale on behalf of a Vendor via the Offr Portal, will be available for inspection and
marketing purposes for a set period of time (as determined by the Estate Agent acting
on the Vendor’s behalf) on the Estate Agent’s website (the “Marketing Period”) to
allow interested parties sufficient time to carry out their due diligence prior to the
Property Sale.
3.2 Where to find information about the Listed Property.
- the requested price for the Listed Property (the “Asking Price”);
- the Particulars;
- Offer submission panel;
- history of offers made on the Listed Property;
- booking viewings section; and
- legal documents section, in the case of the Offr Portal, the Legal Documents Vault.
3.3 We may refuse any offer.
You must place any offer on the Listed Property through
the Offr Portal during the fixed period the Listed Property is made available for
receipt of offers by Purchasers, as set by the Estate Agent acting on the advice of the
Vendor (the “Sale Period”). We may refuse to accept an offer and we do not have to
explain why.
3.4 Contents of an offer.
Each offer on a Listed Property must contain:
- the monetary value of the offer;
- proof of your identification and address;
- Proof of Funds (as defined below); and
- if the sale of the Listed Property may be subject to a survey.
3.5 Consideration of offers.
Once the Sale Period has closed, all offers placed in
relation to a Listed Property will be made available to the Vendor and Estate Agent for
their consideration. For the avoidance of doubt, Offr is not involved in the process of
selecting offers or responsible for the decision made in relation to any offer placed in
relation to a Listed Property.
3.6 The highest value offer may not be accepted.
You acknowledge and agree that the
offer accepted on a Listed Property by the Estate Agent acting on the advice of the
Vendor may not necessarily be the highest offer placed in relation to a Listed
Property. You also acknowledge and agree that the offer accepted may not be in
excess of the Asking Price. For example, a Vendor may prefer to accept an offer from
a party not requiring finance to complete the purchase as this may result in a faster
completion of the sale.
4. Successful Purchasers
The following section applies to Purchasers:4.1 Requirements of the Successful Purchaser.
If your offer is accepted by the Estate
Agent acting on the advice of the Vendor, Offr will send you an email confirming that
your offer on the Listed Property has been accepted, at which point you will be
deemed the “Successful Purchaser”. All offers (including the Contract for Sale) are
accepted by the Estate Agent on behalf of a Vendor on a ‘Subject to
Contract/Contract Denied basis’. For the avoidance of doubt, the Estate Agent is the
only party with the authority to accept an offer made on a Listed Property on the Offr
Portal.
4.2 Booking Deposit.
If you are the Successful Purchaser, you must pay the agreed deposit on the Listed Property
as set by the Estate Agent acting on the advice of the Vendor, the “Booking Deposit”. The
Successful Purchaser can pay the Booking Deposit required directly to the Estate Agent acting
on behalf of the Vendor or via the Offr Portal by debit card, credit card or by bank transfer.
All card payments made through the Offr Portal are processed by the Payment Facilitator and the
Successful Purchaser could be subjected to a Service Fee (defined below). The Booking Deposit for
a Listed Property will be held by the Estate Agent as stakeholder and is fully refundable until such
time as the Contract for Sale is signed by the Successful Purchaser and the Vendor.
4.3 Service Fee.
The Successful Purchaser may be subjected to a fee by the Estate Agent upon finalising the payment of
their Booking Deposit ("Service Fee").
4.4 Proof of Funds.
In addition to the Booking Deposit, you must upload satisfactory
documents to the Offr Portal to prove to the Estate Agent you have the financial ability
to complete the purchase of the Listed Property within two business days from the
email notification of acceptance outlined in clause 4.1, if this has not already been
pre-approved by the Estate Agent. These documents may include a bank statement
evidencing you have the required financing for the sale of the Listed Property, the
“Proof of Funds”.
4.5 Right to re-offer the Listed Property.
If you (as the Successful Purchaser) do not
pay the required Booking Deposit and provide Proof of Funds within two business
days from the email notification of acceptance outlined in clause 4.1, the Estate Agent
reserves the right to re-offer the Listed Property for sale. For the avoidance of doubt,
if the Estate Agent elects to re-offer the Listed Property, the Vendor may unilaterally
revoke its agreement to enter into the Contract for Sale.
4.6 The Sale Agreed Period.
When the Successful Purchaser has paid the required
Booking Deposit (and provided Proof of Funds to the satisfaction of the Estate Agent),
the Successful Purchaser shall have a sale agreed period of three weeks to carry out
detailed due diligence and to execute a binding Contract for Sale (the “Sale Agreed
Period”). During the Sale Agreed Period, the Offr system will not allow any other
Purchaser to place an offer on that Listed Property.
4.7 Legal Pack.
By the commencement of the Sale Agreed Period, the Vendor’s Solicitor
will upload the relevant legal documents, including the Contract for Sale, into the
Legal Document Vault (“Legal Pack”) and this will be available for download by the
Purchaser’s Solicitor. We recommend that the Successful Purchaser downloads and
reviews (or ensures that the Successful Purchaser’s Solicitor reviews on their behalf)
the documents contained in the Legal Pack. For the avoidance of doubt, the Contract
for Sale within the legal pack is made available on a ‘Subject to Contract/Contract
denied basis’.
4.8 Execution of the Contract for Sale.
The Successful Purchaser is under no
obligation to proceed to signature of the Contract of Sale. However, if the Successful
Purchaser does not execute a binding Contract for Sale within the Sale Agreed
Period, the Estate Agent reserves the right to re-offer a Listed Property for sale and
the Vendor may unilaterally revoke its agreement to the Contract for Sale. Signature
of the Contract for Sale will be done electronically by using the Signature Partner
unless the Successful Purchaser requests to sign it manually.
4.9 You must comply with the Contract for Sale.
Once a binding Contract for Sale has
been executed, the Purchaser is obliged to buy the Listed Property at the price of the
accepted offer on the Listed Property plus VAT (if applicable) and proceed to
completion of the transaction in accordance with the Contract for Sale.
5. Vendor Obligations
The following section applies to Vendors and Estate Agents:5.1 Requirements of the Vendor (and/or Estate Agent) on successful completion of a Property Sale.
Subject to payment in full by the Successful Purchaser of the
Booking Deposit to the Estate Agent in accordance with clause 4.2, the Vendor (or
Estate Agent acting on the Vendor’s behalf) agrees that during the Sale Agreed
Period it will:
- use reasonable endeavours to ensure the Vendor’s Solicitor uploads the Legal Pack into the Legal Document Vault if the Solicitor has not already done so;
- not instruct us to offer the Listed Property for sale through the Offr Portal;
- not negotiate any terms for the sale of the Listed Property with anyone other than the Successful Purchaser or persons confirmed to be acting on their behalf;
- not send, instruct, or allow anyone else to send any contract for sale of the Listed Property to anyone other than the Successful Purchaser’s Solicitor;
- give such access to the Listed Property as may be reasonably required by a surveyor or valuer appointed by the Successful Purchaser;
- use all reasonable endeavours to proceed to a formal exchange of the Contract for Sale; and
- supply all documentation, information and authority to enable the Successful Purchaser’s Solicitor to do all work necessary to complete the sale of the Listed Property on the closing date specified in the Contract for Sale.
6. Estate agent obligations
The following section applies to Estate Agents:6.1 In relation to a Property Sale you agree:
- to always act in a professional manner and in the Vendor’s best interests;
- to act only in accordance with the Vendor’s instructions in relation to the Listed Property; and
- in the event the Successful Purchaser pays the Booking Deposit directly to the Estate Agent in accordance with clause 4.2, the Estate Agent must promptly inform us via the Offr Portal.
