Part Exchange
Part Exchange Terms and Conditions:
1.1 Part Exchange is only available on selected plots and developments. Part exchange will only be available where the home being traded in is no more than 70% of the selling price of the plot being purchased.
1.2 Part exchange is only available up to a maximum value of £300,000 for your old property.
1.3 Milestone Developments are under no obligation to make an offer. If you have already incurred costs (e.g. estate agents or legal fees) at the time of negotiating a part exchange Milestone Developments will not reimburse these costs.
1.4 Any offer made will be made subject to valuation and survey. Our offer to purchase your existing home is based on a presumed sale within 6 – 8 weeks.
1.5 An offer made by us under the part exchange scheme is subject to any necessary further enquiries or reports.
1.6 We reserve the right to market the property you are selling prior to your move into a new Milestone Home and you agree to allow reasonable access to the property to facilitate the resale (subject to agreed appointments) and to the erection of a “for sale” sign at the property. You agree to cancel any existing agreements with estate agents and agree that you are responsible for any fees due to them.
1.7 You agree that no party is currently negotiating to purchase the property you are selling and that no introduction has already been made by any other party.
1.8 It is our intention that Milestone Developments will purchase your existing home and take legal title to it prior to selling it on to a third party, to allow you to purchase a new Milestone Home. If you withdraw from the transaction and Milestone Developments has found a prospective buyer for your home, Milestone Developments will not make an introduction between you and the prospective buyer. If an introduction has already been made by Milestone Developments or their agent you will be liable to pay a fee of £1,500 plus VAT to Milestone Developments to reimburse costs incurred and Milestone Developments will have no further involvement in facilitating the sale.
1.9 Solicitors will ask that you complete the Property Information Questionnaire. As Milestone Developments has no first hand knowledge of your existing home the company will have to use the information on the form for presentation to a subsequent purchaser for your existing home. You confirm that you will complete all forms accurately and acknowledge that a future purchaser will rely upon on your answers and that legal action may be taken against you if you are found to have given false information.
1.10 We reserve the right to refuse a part exchange and we are under no obligation to give reasons why. All valuations and decisions are final.
Milestone Developments General Terms & Conditions:
Any promoted Milestone Developments offer is subject to contract and status. Offers are on selected plots only and are subject to availability. The offers advertised cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer on the same plot unless expressly stated otherwise. Prices and details are correct at time of going to press. All images are typical of Milestone homes and are for illustrative purposes only. Please contact the development in which you are interested for further details.
Milestone Developments reserve the right to withdraw or alter any of these offers at any time prior to the payment of a Reservation Fee. Contracts/Missives must be exchanged within 28 days of reservation of your property. Failure to do so may result in the loss of your reservation fee.
The current specific offers being advertised in relation to selected Milestone developments are also subject to the specific terms and conditions set out above (N.B. these offers may vary from time to time and you should refer to the development in which you are interested to discover which offers are available on specific plots and developments).
Milestone Developments will not be liable for the refusal of a mortgage based on the borrower’s individual circumstances which leads to the loss of any Reservation Fee. Milestone Developments will not be responsible for the failure of any deal due to any defects in your existing property which arise as a result of an inspection or survey, whether a part exchange deal has been agreed or not.
These terms and conditions do not affect your statutory rights.
If you require a mortgage, you are strongly advised to obtain advice from a regulated adviser. Milestone Developments recommends from a panel of new build mortgage advisers who have extensive knowledge of the new build mortgage market, though you may, of course, seek such advice from your own mortgage adviser.
YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON YOUR MORTGAGE
