Introduction
In any real estate transaction, there is a huge array of searches and enquiries which can be raised.
Carrying out thorough due diligence will mean that your client will be in a position to make an informed decision about whether the site is suitable for their purposes. In some cases, the search results may mean that your client is able to negotiate a reduction in the purchase price. Sometimes the results of the due diligence exercise will result in your client walking away from the deal, now they know what pitfalls they may encounter. For example, the due diligence exercise may show that the site is completely unsuitable for the development that your client had in mind.
This webinar seeks to demystify the due diligence process and to help you identify which searches are worth doing, how best to report to your client on the results, the limitations of some searches and what more can be done to find out about the site and the locality, so your client is able to make an informed decision about the transaction.
