SELLING PROCESS

Although the lawyer's involvement usually comes after you have an offer and Agreement of Purchase and Sale in place, it is advisable to consult with them at any stage of the process if you have any legal inquiries or uncertainties. Having a lawyer by your side helps protect your interests and ensure a seamless and legally sound property sale.

  • Paying a commission to a real estate agent who brings a buyer is not mandatory, but it is a common practice in the real estate industry.

Ultimately, the decision to offer a commission to buyer's agents is at the discretion of the seller.
