BUYERS FEE

Buyer's Fee of 2% of The Purchase Price, subject to Minimum Fee £3999 (All fees inclusive of VAT). T&Cs apply.

Please request information pack, Buyer’s Guide & FAQs.

You will be required to enter into an “Exclusivity Agreement” with the Seller, granting you the Buyer the Exclusive right to purchase the property within the exclusivity period.

Please note the Buyer’s Fee is a non-refundable unconditional Exclusivity Fee in addition to the purchase price payable to the Agent upon offer acceptance.

The fee is not subject to a cooling off period and is non-refundable save in accordance with the terms stated in the exclusivity agreement.

Upon offer acceptance you will not be required to exchange contracts, but will be granted an “exclusivity period” in order to exchange and complete on the transaction. This timescale will generally be 8 weeks, but will be specified in the Exclusivity agreement.

This is a flexible and buyer friendly method of purchase. By signing the Exclusivity Agreement and paying the Buyer’s Fee, this secures the transaction and takes the property off the market.

By paying your fee, that amount may be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property and be included in the calculation for stamp duty land tax liability.

The OPA’s “Secure It Now Exclusivity Package” – this is a legally binding agreement between you and the seller. When the offer is accepted, the buyer pays the Exclusivity Fee to the Agent and enters into an “Exclusivity agreement with the Seller”, granting the buyer an exclusivity period, which is usually upto 8 weeks to complete on the purchase of the property. During the exclusivity period, the buyer has the exclusive right to purchase the property, no other offers can be accepted and during this period buyer must complete the sale transaction. If the buyer fails to complete in this period, the fee is non-refundable.

This property is being offered under The OPA’s “Secure It Now Exclusivity Package”.

Here are the benefits for you:

• Secure your dream property straight away

• Similar to a “normal” or “conventional” sale with a few measures to protect the buyer and the seller

• No competitive bidding

• No risk of being gazumped

• Minimises risk of fall throughs

Secure It Now Exclusivity Package - How does it work?

You can now secure the purchase with a buyer’s “Secure It Now Exclusivity Agreement. By entering into the exclusivity agreement and paying the Exclusivity Fee, this buys:

• A legally binding contract granting the buyer exclusive rights to purchase the property within a given timeframe (usually 56 days / 8 weeks, however, please confirm seller’s required timescale).

• Paying the Exclusivity Fee ensures that the seller takes their property off the market as soon as the sale is agreed and reserves it exclusively for you.

• This prevents the risk of gazumping.

• Helps you avoid losing money and wasting time which most buyers like you may face with the traditional estate agent's approach.

• You get a fixed exclusivity period (approximately 8 weeks) to complete, safe in the knowledge that you will not be gazumped or outbid by another buyer.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on July 28, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
