    Getting Finance
    image cannot be displayed

    When, or ideally before, you start your property search, it's worth making sure you have your finances in place. If you have money in savings or shares, make sure you can access them easily and that there aren't any fixed timelines to withdrawal. If you need a mortgage call our independent financial adviser, The Levels Financial. They will not only identify lender and type of mortgage that is best for you but will also do the legwork and the paperwork, leaving you to get on with all the other important things going on in your life at this time. Give us a call and we will put you in touch with them

  • paragraph

    Offer Making

    Once we've found a property for you that you like, discuss with us the offer you would like to make. We will ask you to confirm how you intend to fund the purchase of your property and availability of the deposit (usually 10% of purchase price). If you already have a mortgage arranged, we will ask you to provide an agreement in principle (AIP) document and we will require the details of your financial advisor so that we can clarify the time frame that will be involved for processing your application. If you are buying without a mortgage (a 'cash buyer') you will also need to provide evidence of finance.

    What Happens Next...
  • paragraph

    The Survey

    If you are buying with a mortgage, a survey of the property will be booked by a surveyor on behalf of the mortgage lender. This is to protect their interests by valuing the property and highlighting any major defects that would negatively affect the security of their loan.

  • paragraph

    The Mortgage Offer

    Once your mortgage lender has received the survey report and are satisfied the loan amount is realistic given the valuation, they will issue a mortgage offer to your solicitor.

  • paragraph

    The Conveyancing

    Once an offer has been agreed between you and the seller, we will contact each party's solicitors to confirm the details of the sale. Offers are not legally binding until contracts have been exchanged. From now until exchange, you will need to be in close communication with your solicitor and our Sales Progressors will also be in regular contact with you and your solicitor, as well as the sellers and their solicitor, and the solicitor of any other people in your chain to make sure that your purchase goes through and on time.

  • paragraph

    Exchange of Contracts

    Exchanging contracts is the moment when the sale becomes legally binding on both sides. You can only exchange once you have paid a cleared deposit (usually 10% of the purchase price) to your solicitor's account. Your solicitor will tell you and us when contracts have been exchanged. The completion date is then set by mutual agreement and is also contractually binding.

    You'll generally find me in our Street or Somerton offices, or somewhere in between! I have been with H&O for nearing 14 years. Having grown up locally within the Polden Villages, I haven't really strayed very far! This said, whilst it doesn't always go hand-in-hand with local estate agency, travelling the world has always been high on my list of priorities and I've been lucky to have experienced as much of it as I have. You'll find me ever willing to talk about anything sport related, but you'll struggle to stop me once I get going!

    I've loved being part of the h&o family since 2014. Having had a few roles I have many strings to my bow, and I love the variety that estate agency offers. I am born and bred in Somerset and having a young family I feel perfectly placed to advise on living in the area. I relish the buzz of a sale but above all else am people focused, I have a friendly yet professional approach and take great pride in supporting sellers and buyers alike through the process.

    Beyond the office, I am married to Mark and have four children who keep me constantly busy, so coming to work is light relief. Outside of work I enjoy family walks with our dogs, football matches, dance lessons and competitions, swimming lessons and everything else in between with the children. I enjoy my job h&o, every day is different with new challenges. I am really pleased to now be part of the Sales team, we are all here to provide a great service to you.

    Working for H&O has always been a huge aspiration of mine, finally coming true in 2024! After approximately 10 years of working in a hair salon I have decided to have a complete career change and join the world of estate agency! I have absolutely loved working and learning from such an incredible team, I think its safe to say I've found my forever job!

    I have been working at h & o since January 2021. After 20 years in Leisure and Recreation I decided to take the leap and have not looked back. I can turn my hand to whatever is required of me, which is needed in such a busy office. I am continuously learning on the job as there is so much involved and no two days are the same. Working part-time fits perfectly with being a busy mum of two and accommodates an ideal work-life balance.

    I have been working at H&O since early 2024 and love the fact that every day has variety. Having previously worked positions within hospitality I have always enjoyed meeting new people and providing good customer service. I have lived locally for 26 years and watched my 2 children grow up in this beautiful area of Somerset. In my spare time I enjoy travelling, cooking, gardening and reading.

    • Seller Testimonial

      I would heartily recommend them to anyone
      Your company has recently sold my bungalow in Chilton Polden and negotiated the purchase of my new property - perhaps not a lot of money all told for you - but the ladies in particular, with who I had most of my dealings with at your Street office have been most helpful, courteous, very professional and always with a smile on their faces, it was indeed a pleasure to work with them. I wanted you to know that the team spirit throughout works very well there and I would heartily recommend them to anyone. 
    • Seller Testimonial

      Knowledge of local buyers and the market
      I appreciate all your hard work on the sale of the house and in achieving an asking price offer so quickly. Your knowledge of local buyers and the market has paid dividends and I am very grateful for that

      Thank you so much for all your support with our house sale and purchase. You have all been so lovely to work with and we still can't really believe we finally bought our dream house! We are really happy here. I guess some things are just meant to be. Many thanks and love from us all.

    • Seller Testimonial

      Thanks for all your support
      Just a little note and a small token of my appreciation for finding such a lovely flat for my Mum, showing us all around and then sticking with us through 'thick and thin' when we had an enormous upset following her fall at Christmas. She is now pretty good, walking quite well and looking forward to life surrounded by all her Somerset family. Big thanks for all your support and best wishes to you all for the future.
