Document background
The Sale and Purchase Deed is a crucial document in property transactions within England and Wales, serving as the primary instrument for transferring real property ownership. It is used when a definitive transfer of property rights is required, whether for residential, commercial, or industrial properties. The deed must comply with the Law of Property Act 1925 and other relevant property legislation, containing specific provisions about the property, parties, price, and completion arrangements. This document is particularly important as it creates a permanent record of the transaction and must be registered with HM Land Registry.
