Buying or selling a mortgaged property
A sale involving an existing mortgage needs a bank liability or settlement process and a registration sequence that protects the parties while the mortgage is released and the sale is completed.
Apply the framework to the real facts.
Confirm the bank liability, validity dates, manager-cheque or transfer requirements, buyer finance sequence and DLD registration steps before committing to a completion date.
What to check
- Current bank liability letter
- Mortgage-release process
- Buyer financing and valuation status
- Payment instruments and beneficiaries
- Transfer appointment requirements
Common mistakes
- Treating the seller equity as the only amount due
- Assuming the mortgage can be cleared after an ordinary transfer
- Booking completion before the bank documents are ready
