Chancellors have been established in the estate agency industry for over 200 years. Since 1807, buyers have come to us to find their perfect home or investment.
We have used that knowledge and experience to create our impartial Buyer’s Guide, a detailed guide which answers the key questions we have been asked about every aspect of the house buying process, including:
We also strongly advise buyers to read guides from other sources to ensure they know the process and are equipped to make informed decisions, such as:
*YOUR HOME IS AT RISK IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON YOUR MORTGAGE
Buying a home is a big life moment. We help guide you through the process, ensuring it is as stress-free as possible.
Arrange viewings of suitable properties to get a clear sense of condition, location and value.
Once you’ve found the right property, submit an offer through the estate agent.
Finalise your mortgage application (if needed), arrange a survey and instruct a solicitor to begin the legal process, including surveys and searches.
When contracts are exchanged, the sale is legally binding. On completion day, funds are transferred, and you receive the keys to your new home.
At Chancellors, we believe in giving you the best buying experience.
Our experts are always on hand whether you're looking to let, sell, buy, or rent a home.

Most buyers need at least 5-10% of the property’s value. If you have a larger deposit, you usually can secure better rates.
