Stages in the Sale of a Property Stage 1 – Getting to Instruction • Initial contact with the vendor: need to check the following: type of property, contact details of vendor, address of property/Eircode and purpose of the contact - sale or valuation? If a sale, does the vendor need a quick sale? Qualify the lead i.e. is the vendor buying another property? If an investment property, is the tenant in situ? Check if there is a folio number available and confirm the ownership of the property. Schedule the viewing. • Pre-viewing: Set up a file & record all info from initial contact on CRM system. Check the Property Price Register to help get a general idea of property valuation (subject to viewing, helps to display knowledge of area/market and set expectations for the vendor). Nature of property may affect pricing e.g. starter home vs. larger property with vendor seeking to downsize. Consideration for comparables may include similar/same location, size and condition of property, availability and type of parking, layout of property, plot size, orientation of garden, extensions undertaken etc. Nature of market conditions, state of wider economy, cost of capital and availability of credit may also be factors. • Appraisal/viewing: Bring an advertising pack/sales & marketing brochures. Walk through property with client, note nice features/selling points for the brochure, let the client talk about upgrades/specific features of the property. It is very important to listen to the vendor and build rapport. Confirm property details e.g. condition and layout, plot size, orientation of garden. Check for certificates of compliance for any extensions, planning permissions for conversions, right of way if applicable etc. Check if a BER available/provide details for approved assessors. Demonstrate your/the practice’s professional expertise, justify why you should get the instruction, discuss recent local sales and give your potential valuation. Discuss the sales fee, marketing fee and any additional charges e.g. professional photography, drone footage, virtual tours (walkthrough video, Matterport etc.) Ask how the vendor heard about you/your practice and why are they considering you for the sale. Where appropriate offer advice to help vendor increase potential sales price. (If possible, leave with signed Property Services Agreement/Letter of Engagement.) Thank you, send/email market appraisal, any queries/questions do get in touch and let the vendor know that we’ll be in touch in coming days. • Post appraisal – letter sent that pm/next morning with market appraisal; diary note to follow up. Check that market appraisal letter received and check for questions. If did not get sale, find out why not/debrief. If get the sale, email confirmation of instruction. Once PSRA sent and LOE returned signed = stage 2. Other details required – ID, proof of address, proof of ownership/title, solicitor details, BER certificate (refer to assessor if not available). All these should be uploaded to CRM. Stage 2 – Getting to ‘Sale Agreed’ Set up appointment to measure & photograph, note any special features e.g., upgraded kitchen, south-facing garden. Provide ideas for improving sales potential (declutter, painting, tidy garden etc. Check if has vendor potential buyers in mind already e.g., relations, friends, other parties interested. Seek vendor approval for photos/text of brochure. Check for access (tenants in situ/working from home etc) and confirm viewing times. If given a key for viewings – tag it! Check alarm codes & whether a sign is allowed on the property. Bring to market – upload to all websites e.g., daft/my home, in house websites and create window display. Match the property against your internal database of potential purchasers /CRM system. Set up appointments for viewings on CRM or arrange for open viewings. Confirm viewings with vendor & purchaser. Turn on lights, open windows, secure valuables, leave out brochures & business cards, bring viewings sheets to keep record of attendees. Introduce yourself and get attendee details. Let people view the property and address any questions. Point out key features. Record questions to be answered and any feedback from viewers. Ask are they selling property? Let viewers know of offers already received. Lock up/alarm property/close windows. Provide vendor with feedback on viewings - number of viewers / questions raised/overall reaction to property. Offers should be confirmed in writing & upload to on CRM/ offers will be input by bidders onto online bidding platforms ‘Proof of funds’ required for offers in some practices. Successful bidder will be chosen by vendor, who might want quick sale/no chain or prefer the highest bidder. Booking deposit will be sought from successful bidder. The amount varies by practice but must cover fees. Sales Advice Notice/letter should be sent to both solicitors (and may be cc’d to vendor/buyer or notify both that SAN have gone out). Booking deposit receipt should be issued. The BER certificate and report should go to the solicitor. Send requests for docs/info to successful bidder including steps they need to take to progress sale e.g., organise the bank valuation and/or schedule the survey. Once the deposit is paid the property is Sale Agreed, inform other bidders, and update all websites/sales board etc. Stage 3 – Getting to closing Access should be organised for the bank valuation/survey. Stay in touch with both solicitors ‘contract-chasing’ i.e., check when contracts are issued, signed and queries answered. Legal searches undertaken by the solicitors may include checking boundaries, land registry, title, rights of way, compliance certs etc. When contracts are signed 10% purchase price/booking deposit should be sent to the vendor’s solicitor. Once all queries satisfied = drawdown of mortgage/funding, house/life insurance in place. Title deeds will be requested once contract is signed. Decide final closing date. Check that the property taxes have been paid. Check that vendor has vacated the property. When vacant, conduct the final walkthrough and take final readings (MPRNs ). Check with solicitor if the drawn down funds h, and once received the solicitor gives authorisation to the estate agent to release the keys. The agent will do up invoice, send the balance of funds to solicitor and provide gift to purchaser. Finally remove sign, mark as sold on CRM, seek testimonials, upload to social media and close a/c on CRM
Understanding the Features of Finance: A Guide for Newbies Finance is a broad field that involves managing money, including activities such as investing, borrowing, lending, budgeting, saving, and forecasting. As a beginner, understanding the basic features of finance is crucial. This guide will relate these features to blockchain technology, cryptocurrency, and decentralized finance (DeFi). 1. Basic Financial Concepts Investing: Putting money into assets like stocks, bonds, or real estate with the expectation of earning a return. In the blockchain world, this translates to investing in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, or various DeFi projects. Borrowing and Lending: Traditional finance involves banks and financial institutions providing loans. In the DeFi space, platforms like Aave and Compound allow users to borrow and lend cryptocurrencies without intermediaries. Budgeting: Planning how to allocate your income to cover expenses, save, and invest. Using blockchain technology, you can utilize smart contracts to automate budgeting and savings processes. 2. Blockchain Technology Blockchain is a decentralized ledger that records transactions across multiple computers. It is the technology behind cryptocurrencies and has several key features: Transparency: All transactions are recorded on a public ledger, making them visible to anyone. Security: Cryptographic techniques ensure that data on the blockchain is secure and tamper-proof. Decentralization: No single entity controls the blockchain, reducing the risk of centralized control and failure. 3. Cryptocurrencies Cryptocurrencies are digital or virtual currencies that use cryptography for security. They operate on blockchain technology and offer several advantages: Lower Transaction Costs: Sending money across borders is cheaper with cryptocurrencies compared to traditional banking methods. Accessibility: Anyone with an internet connection can access cryptocurrencies, promoting financial inclusion. Ownership and Control: Users have complete control over their funds without relying on banks. 4. Decentralized Finance (DeFi) DeFi is a movement that uses blockchain technology to recreate and improve traditional financial systems in a decentralized manner. Key features of DeFi include: Smart Contracts: Self-executing contracts with the terms directly written into code, enabling trustless and automated transactions. Liquidity Pools: Users can provide their assets to a pool and earn interest or rewards, promoting liquidity in the DeFi ecosystem. Yield Farming: A strategy where users move their assets between different DeFi platforms to maximize returns. 5. Applications in DeFi and Blockchain HaloFi Save: A platform that leverages blockchain technology to help people save money efficiently and securely. It encourages users to save larger amounts for longer durations, offering higher interest rates compared to traditional banks. Non-Custodial Savings: Users have full control over their funds, reducing the risk of losing their money to institutional failures or fraud. Access to DeFi: Integrating with DeFi platforms like Moola Market, HaloFi Save provides additional opportunities to earn interest on savings, promoting financial growth and stability. Practical Example: A Farmer's Journey Imagine a farmer in a remote village in Africa. Traditionally, this farmer might not have access to banking services, making it difficult to save money, get loans, or invest in better farming equipment. With platforms like HaloFi Save, the farmer can: Save money securely and earn interest. Access microloans through DeFi platforms integrated with Celo. Participate in educational programs to learn more about blockchain and DeFi. Conclusion Blockchain technology, through platforms like HaloFi Save and initiatives by Celo Africa DAO, has the potential to drive significant social change by promoting financial inclusion, transparency, and access to resources. By empowering individuals and communities with the tools and knowledge to participate in the digital economy, blockchain can help address global issues and foster sustainable development.
