Legal Services for the Disposal of Smallholdings Estate

Herefordshire Council wishes to dispose of its Smallholding Estate and it’s expected that this will be sold via a structured sale process.

1. Consideration of the title documents and thereafter production of a report to be prepared in anticipation of the Councils disposal of the Estate. 2. Support and liaise with the Councils selling agents in compiling sales particulars and legal packs. 3. Following receipt of successful bids, attending to all steps leading up to completion and certain post completion matters.
