Securing Your Investment Property

To reserve a property or discuss any final details please call our central office on 0845 838 2129 and arrange to meet a member of the DPI Team. You can arrange a viewing as required, or immediately arrange your provisional reservation.

A property reservation form will need to be completed and promptly returned to our office along, with the appropriate reservation fee.

Payment of this fee can be made by cheque payable to DPI Property Ltd, or by BACS transfer (details on request). To avoid disappointment, it is strongly advisable to return both the reservation form and accompanying fee within 48 hours of verbal agreement.

IMPORTANT: RESERVATION FEES ARE NOT RETURNABLE. They are generally passed straight onto the vendor, confirming your intention to complete and ensuring the discounted price is secured.

Step 2 > Speak to the Mortgage Advisor

Once your property is reserved our mortgage partner will contact you in order to discuss your requirements and receive your instructions. Remember you are normally required to exchange within 28 days, which is why we strongly recommend that for efficiency and speed that investors take advantage of our mortgage partner where required.

Fully qualified and experienced guidance is available to you with no additional charge from DPI Property. The broker will outline any applicable fees directly with you. Alternatively, you are free to organise and arrange your own mortgage and advise DPI Property of the details.

The broker and lender will organise the survey and all relevant purchase arrangements.

Step 3 > Retain a Solicitor

The next stage is to advise a solicitor, who will receive the contracts from the vendor. DPI can refer you directly to our tried and trusted legal partners who are experienced in this method of purchase. Professionals will guide you smoothly through the buying process and liaise with the vendors on your behalf.

The solicitor and broker will liaise to ensure speedy and effective conveyancing.

Stage 4 > Congratulations - you have secured your property!

There is now often nothing more to pay on your property until exchange and/or completion. Both you and the developer are now fully committed to honour the deal on the investment property at the discounted price agreed.

You are now free to arrange a tenant for your property and DPI can offer professional advice and input. We will often have secured professional rental partners close to the chosen development, who will assist in all matters relating to renting your property.
