I have had the best experience with century 21. We went through the worst nightmare especially going through the interest hike.

Perry has been phenomenal a big asset to the company. He helped us through out the way and Lisa she has been ever so kind keeping us up to date with everything and make sure everything goes smoothly. I would highly recommend to go with century 21 the best in the business. 10 out of 10

From the other estate agencies, century21 has been tremendously amazing. Communication with them was seem-less and they were prompt and professional.
We would use them again.

Paulina at Century 21 Goodmayes has been very good since they took over management. Fast, efficient and via the whatsapp group she started always on call.
Recommendations suggested passed onto the landlord to improve and save him money.
All in all can ask for much more 9/10

Maidstone Branch

I cannot thank Century 21 enough especially Peter Lott. We had a few bumps along the way but Peter was always on the end of the phone for us and worked tirelessly to ensure we got our little bungalow which we absolutely love. We used this company for our buying and selling and would recommend them to anyone.

Mrs TM Smith, Feb 23

The steps to

Buying with us

STEP

01

Set your budget

Before you begin your property search, it is vital that you work out your budget. If you require a mortgage to help fund your purchase, please ensure that you consult a bank or mortgage broker.

STEP

02

Find the right property

Once your budget is in place, begin the search for your dream home by browsing our available properties online, or contacting the Century 21 branch that is most local to you.

STEP

03

Arrange a viewing

As soon as you find a house that interests you, contact the relevant C21 UK office to arrange a viewing. Our agents accompany all viewings to ensure that any questions you have about the property can be answered there and then.

STEP

04

Make an offer

If you would like to buy a property that you have viewed, let us know and we will communicate your offer to the seller on your behalf. You must provide evidence of your finances at this stage, be this by proof of cash or by presenting your mortgage agreement in principle.

STEP

05

Instruct a solicitor

Once your offer has been accepted, the next step is to instruct a conveyancer to handle all of the legal paperwork that is required to complete your purchase. If needed, we are happy to recommend a reliable and experienced conveyancer.

STEP

06

Arrange a survey

Please be aware that the purpose of a mortgage valuation is to satisfy the lender that they will not be lending too much. This will tell you very little about the property’s state of repair. We recommend that you purchase an additional HomeBuyer Report or Building Survey, so that costly faults are not uncovered at a later date.

STEP

07

Mortgage and insurance

After the mortgage valuation is completed, you should receive a final mortgage offer from your lender. At this stage, we recommend that you consider taking out mortgage payment protection and buildings & contents insurance.

STEP

08

Exchange contracts

Once all of the above steps have been completed, you will need to pay your deposit before exchanging contracts with the seller. After contracts are exchanged, neither party can back out and the completion date will be set.

STEP

09

Completion

On your completion date, you will be able to collect the keys from your Century 21 UK office and start moving your possessions into the property. Congratulations, your dream home is now a reality!
