When it comes to selling your home, you need a team you can rely on. Here’s why homeowners and landlords across the North East choose DMA Law:
Leasehold sales involve extra steps that can add time and complexity to your move. At DMA Law, we make the process clear and manageable from the start.
When selling a leasehold property, you’ll need to provide:
These documents help your buyer understand the full picture and prevent problems later. It’s important to request them early, as delays can slow down your sale.
Leasehold transactions often take longer than freehold sales and may involve extra costs—such as fees charged by the freeholder or managing agent for providing documents. We’ll explain all likely fees up front and keep you informed throughout.
With DMA Law, you benefit from an experienced team who handle leasehold sales every day. We coordinate with all parties, chase up paperwork, and make sure your sale stays on track—so you avoid unnecessary stress and last-minute surprises.
Selling your home is smoother when you know what to expect. Here’s how DMA Law guides you through every stage:
You contact us and give the go-ahead to start work on your sale.
We confirm your identity and carry out anti-money laundering checks. This protects everyone involved and keeps your sale compliant.
We gather your property’s title deeds and prepare a contract pack for your buyer. This includes: Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), Property Information Form (TA6), Fixtures and Fittings Form (TA10)
The buyer’s solicitor will review the contract pack and may raise questions about your property. We handle all their enquiries and keep you informed of anything that needs your attention.
Most sales complete within 8–12 weeks. Delays can occur if you’re part of a long property chain, waiting for mortgage approvals, or if documents take time to be returned. We keep you updated at every step to help avoid unexpected hold-ups.
Once all questions are answered, you sign the contract and transfer deed, confirming the legal transfer of ownership.
Both sides agree on a completion date. Contracts are exchanged, making the sale legally binding.
On completion day, we confirm the safe transfer of funds from your buyer. Once the money arrives, your sale is complete.
You hand over the keys to your buyer—often through the estate agent.
We provide you with a final financial statement, settle any outstanding fees, and close your file.
Most sales complete within 8–12 weeks. Delays can occur if you’re part of a long property chain, waiting for mortgage approvals, or if documents take time to be returned. We keep you updated at every step to help avoid unexpected hold-ups.

Most house sales take between 8 and 12 weeks from instruction to completion. The timeline can be longer if you’re in a property chain or waiting on mortgage approvals, but your solicitor will keep you updated every step of the way.
A solicitor manages all the legal work needed to transfer ownership of your home. This includes preparing the contract pack, handling questions from the buyer’s solicitor, and ensuring funds are transferred safely on completion.
You’ll usually need to supply your property’s title deeds, an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), a completed Property Information Form (TA6), and a Fixtures and Fittings Form (TA10). If your property is leasehold, you’ll also need details of your lease, ground rent, and service charges.
It’s not required, but it’s a good idea to choose your solicitor before accepting an offer. This means the legal work can start straight away, reducing delays and helping your sale move quickly.
Yes, we can act for you in both your sale and your next purchase. Using one solicitor for both transactions helps keep everything coordinated and can speed up the process.
