is where your home is
When you choose haart, you’ll get:

Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a legal requirement when a property is sold, rented out, or built in England and Wales.
We can arrange your EPC quickly and at a reduced rate when you use our Legal Services – making it easier and more cost-effective to get your home market-ready.
The legal bits (made simple)
Estate Agency Agreement
From the outset, we’ll share our full written agreement that covers:
• Sole Selling Rights or Multi-Agency terms
• Our fees (including VAT)
• Notice periods and cancellation terms
• What’s included in your marketing package
Important: You’re only legally committed once you sign.
Property information & disclosure
When you sell, you’ll be asked to share key information about:
• Disputes, covenants or restrictions
• Building work or warranties
• Boundaries and rights of way
This usually comes later, but our experienced branch teams will support you in preparing the Property Information Forms early - it helps avoid delays once you find a buyer.
Why we’ve included the Sole Selling Rights Agreement
We believe in being upfront with everything - including paperwork. We’ve included a copy of our Sole Selling Rights Agreement in your pack, not because we expect you to sign today, but so you can take your time to review it in full. It’s part of our commitment to transparency - no hidden terms, no surprises.
This document outlines exactly what you’d be agreeing to if you choose to move forward with us: our service, our fee, and what’s included. We know some people can feel put off by seeing a contract early, but we’d rather you have all the facts from the start than feel rushed later.
If you have any questions at all, just ask - we’re happy to walk you through it.
Need more advice?
At haart, we don’t clock off when other agents do. We’re available 8am–10pm, seven days a week, because we know the right time to talk isn’t always during office hours.
Whether you’ve got questions about the market, want to discuss timing, or just need a second opinion on your next step - we’re just a call, message or email away.
Anti-money laundering checks
As part of our commitment to safeguarding your transaction, we conduct Anti-Money Laundering checks at no extra charge to sellers or buyers.
Estate agents are legally required to conduct AntiMoney Laundering (AML) checks on their clients, including customer due diligence and verification of funds, under the Money Laundering Regulations 2017.
Instructing a solicitor
It’s never too soon to instruct your conveyancer if you want a fast move. Thanks to haart Legal Services, our no-move, no-fee basis means we can get a head start on all of the paperwork. Please ask for a quotation from your valuer when they visit.
