A Guide To Buying And Selling Property In Jersey

1. The legal process - Sellers

When Ogier acts for the seller we prepare a draft deed of sale for the buyer's lawyer, deal with queries raised by the buyer's lawyer and carry out any research required to address those queries. We will also liaise with the seller's mortgage lender to ensure that all mortgages and secured charges are settled from the sale monies and that the charges against the property are cancelled.

2. The legal process - Buyers

Statutory Searches

We make enquiries of Planning, Transport and Technical Services, the relevant parish, Jersey Electricity, Jersey Water, Jersey Gas, the Rent Control Tribunal and Public Health in order to obtain any available information which may affect the buyer's decision to buy the property
