ABOUT
US
The Little House Company is a trading name
of
Little House Publishing Ltd.
We publish information relating to private home sales
(by individual owners) on their behalf.
We
offer the private seller a low cost fixed fee (from £89) means of
advertising
their property directly to buyers, by use of an interactive web site
here
and through publishing arrangements we have with various UK
partners (see our Sellers Section for more
information).
We may also supply a for sale sign for display at the property (displaying the
vendors contact details), but we do
nothing
more.
Because
of the nature and low price of our service, we have no means to verify
independently
the information, status or condition of the property advertised. The
information provided thus represents only
basic facts about the property
which would be obvious and common sense to any ordinary visitor.
We
do not advise on valuation or price or terms of sale and we don't enter into
any
negotiations of any kind between buyer and seller. These are all matters for
the
private seller and buyer and /or their respective legal representatives.
PROPERTY
DETAILS
The information given regarding any particular property
for sale by owner, is
intended to help you decide whether you wish to view this property and avoid
wasting
your time in viewing unsuitable properties.
Whilst
we guard against errors in publication where we can, we rely
on
what the seller tells us about their property, which should
therefore be
considered
by you as a general guide only.
Note
that we have NOT visited the property nor taken any
photographs
published here.
We moderate listings as far as possible for obvious errors, spelling,
presentation etc., but otherwise information displayed is that provided by
the
vendor about their property and further enquiry if necessary about any detail
of importance should be addressed directly to the vendor /advertiser.
An
essential feature of our website is that sellers can place basic property
details
directly onto our database for immediate (automatic) viewing by visitors.
Thereafter, sellers
can, at any time of day or night, edit or change the price and
description shown, again without any direct involvement by us.
The
details contained within the owner's description advertised are as such
provided
entirely
by the seller /advertiser, but do not constitute full particulars.
OUR
ADVICE
Any measurements mentioned or references to any
appliances, whether included in
the sale or not, should therefore be carefully checked directly with the vendor
/owner of the property.
We
have not carried out any kind of survey of the property to look for structural
defects and would advise any homebuyer to obtain a surveyor's report before
exchanging
contracts.
We
have not checked that any appliances or equipment in the property (such as
central
heating, wiring, plumbing) are in working order and would advise homebuyers to
check this
independently
and if necessary commission their own service reports from suitably qualified
contractors.
You
should instruct a solicitor to investigate all legal matters relating to the
property
(e.g. title, tenure, planning permission etc) as these are specialist matters
in which we, as publishers, are not qualified.
Your solicitor will also agree with the seller what items (e.g. carpets,
curtains,
fixtures & fittings, sheds etc) will or will not be included in the sale.
In
short, you should verify for yourself all information before acting on it, in
particular the current asking price, sizes of rooms, ownership, freehold,
extent of refurbishments and
any
matters of specific importance to you.
