What Documents Do You Need to Sell a House?

Early wins

Gas, electrical, and heating certificates, FENSA or building control for windows and extensions, and planning permissions for alterations.

Guarantees

Roof, damp, timber, and insurance claim correspondence help buyers underwrite risk.

Leasehold extras

Service charge accounts, major works consultations, and building safety paperwork where relevant.

Material Information

Agents increasingly expect upfront facts. Organising Documents in a Property Passport supports consistent listing copy.

Handover to conveyancing

When your solicitor asks for evidence, you already hold it in one place.
