How Irish Conveyancing Works
A typical residential property transaction in Ireland follows these key stages.
- 01
Sale Agreed
Buyer and seller agree a price. Both parties appoint solicitors. The estate agent issues a "sale agreed" letter.
- 02
Contracts Issued
The vendor's solicitor prepares the contract and title documents. The buyer's solicitor reviews these and raises any queries.
- 03
Mortgage Approval
If applicable, the buyer's bank issues a formal loan offer. The buyer's solicitor reviews the mortgage conditions.
- 04
Contracts Signed & Deposit Paid
Both parties sign the contract. The buyer pays the balance of the deposit (typically 10%). The sale is now legally binding.
- 05
Closing
The balance of the purchase price is paid. Keys are released. Title is transferred and registered with the Property Registration Authority.
