Buying Tips

Whether you are buying or selling a house the process can be a bewildering and worrying time. We at E. Thornton & Co. will endeavour to make the process as straight- forward and trouble free as possible and will take the time to explain what's going to happen. With our indepth knowledge of the Oban area housing market we can ensure that your interests are protected.

The first thing is to find a property which you would like to buy.  The asking price in any advert or sales particulars is normally a general guide to the seller's requirements - it is not necessarily the price which the seller will accept.  It is up to you to decide how much you wish to offer.

You should then decide whether or not you will require a mortgage to fund your purchase.

E. Thornton & Co. provide a full range of conveyancing services, helping to spot the problems behind the sales gloss, and giving an independent view of the financial options available.

Buyer or seller, your first call should be to us. Such early contact is likely to save rather than cost money. Putting things right after they have gone wrong is always more expensive than getting them right in the first place.
