The Early Bird Scheme

The first steps to an Early Bird reservation

1. Once you have decided to buy your new Pentland home, we will ask you to complete and sign a preliminary enquiry form which will confirm the purchase price of your new property and any other terms and conditions, i.e. full refund of reservation fee if unable to proceed within the agreed time.

2. As soon as your preliminary enquiry form is complete and we have all your details we will inform our corporate business agency who will commission three independent valuations by local estate agents, with a view to selling your property within an agreed time. The timing of the sale of your property will be made to coincide with the build programme of your new home.

3. Pentland Homes will confirm the suggested selling price of your new home and if you agree to this, you will be required to complete an Early Bird reservation form so that the nominated estate agents can commence marketing your property immediately. We will also require a £500 deposit, which will be fully refundable if you are unable to proceed within the agreed time.

4. If at the end of the agreed holding period your property is not sold, Pentland Homes reserves the right to return your reservation deposit to you and to re-market its property.

5. You will be required to complete a full reservation form once your chain of sale is complete. At this point we will take a £500 deposit, which in the event of a cancellation becomes non-refundable.

6. Once that all important customer is found for your property and completion takes place, Pentland Homes will pay the estate agents fees in relation to the sale of your home.

7. Throughout the Early Bird transaction we simply ask that you afford the estate agents as much reasonable acccess to your home as possible for viewings to enable you to buy your new home.
