Recommended by your estate agent
Your agent has recommended a HomeVerifi Sales Pack. Here's why.
We gather and check everything your buyer's solicitor will ask for before you go on the market, so your sale is less likely to stall or fall through, and your asking price is better protected.
See how it worksWhy sales slow down
Most sales slow down after the offer
Once a buyer is found, their solicitor starts asking questions. When was the extension built, and where's the sign-off? Is the boiler serviced? What's the story with that boundary? Hunting for answers and paperwork at that point can add weeks, and sometimes a buyer walks away. Getting it all ready before you go to market means your buyer's solicitor can start work straight away.
When a missing certificate turns up after the offer, a buyer can use it to push for money off, or walk away.
Four steps
How it works
Step 1: Your agent adds it.
They include the HomeVerifi Sales Pack when you put your home on the market, alongside the photos and the EPC.
Step 2: We call you.
Matthew talks you through what's involved, pulls the official records, then goes through the house with you: work you've done, the boiler, any extensions, anything a buyer might ask about.
Step 3: We gather and check.
You share what you have, and we chase the rest from councils, installers and managing agents.
Step 4: Your pack is ready.
You and your agent get a clear pack, with anything still outstanding clearly marked.

FAQs
Questions people ask
Something else on your mind? Email matthew@homeverifi.co.uk or ask your agent.
I can gather my own paperwork. Why use HomeVerifi?
You can, and some people do. Most don't know exactly what a buyer's solicitor will need, and the gaps usually surface after an offer, when time matters most. We know what to look for, we chase the things you don't have, and we check that it all adds up.
Does this replace my solicitor?
No. Your solicitor still handles the legal side of your sale. We get the information ready beforehand, so they and the buyer's solicitor can move faster.
What if some paperwork is missing?
That's common. We chase what we can, and anything still outstanding is clearly marked in your pack, so your agent and buyer know where things stand.
How much does it cost?
Your agent will tell you the price. Agents usually add it to your marketing costs invoice alongside the photos, floor plan and the EPC, and you'll pay them directly.
How do I get started?
Tell your agent you'd like the HomeVerifi Sales Pack. They'll place the order and we'll call you to get going.
Who owns the information?
You do. You decide who sees the pack by sharing the link, and you keep access to your log book for 12 months.
