Hi,
I wish to sell off a property but need to clarify the procedures..
I know that as the 1st step, there is a 2% (or is it 3%) fee payable by the interested buyer.
Once cheque is given by the buyer, if I don't want to sell, I can return the cheque, right? (any time frame for the return of the cheque to the buyer?)
Or even if I have banked in the cheque, within 14 days time (or...?), I can return the money to the interested buyer, right?
My fear is having accepted the cheque, I am bound to have to sell to that buyer. Cos' as this is co-owned property, I am afraid that the other co-owner may later change mind or find another buyer with higher price..
Thanks!!
The 2% is consider as a booking. To what i understand is that you need to return double of the amount of money if you wish to withdraw. However, if the buyer withdraw, you may keep the booking fees.I wish to sell off a property but need to clarify the procedures..

It is also subject to whether you have signed an agreement with the buyer. So I think is best for you to discuss the selling with the co-owner before accepting any booking.
All the best!
