Ashtons Property Exchange Scheme is a simple idea that could enable your dream move. Part exchange is the process of exchanging an existing home as part payment for a new property, acting like a house swap. This concept also works well for people looking to release equity from their property.
Of course both homes need to meet the requirements of the parties involved. Once a match is made we will start the traditional negotiations for the selling prices and the normal conveyance follows. Below is a couple of examples of how it works.
If you are on the market with another estate agent... no problems. We can work along side your estate agent to create the exchange.
If the house you like is with
another estate agent, that's fine. Just make a note of the property details and we will call the agent and find out if your property is a possible match for theirs.

How a Direct Exchange Takes Place

How Chain Forming Takes Place

Chain Forming
Within a chain an exchange can occur where the vendor at the top of the chain (Vendor A) purchases property from the vendor at the bottom of a chain (Vendor D). This allows the sale of Vendor A’s property to proceed and facilitates the release of the majority of their equity. In a slow market, it is crucial that all avenues are fully explored in order to achieve a sale. Register your details with Ashtons to find out more.
