Petition Property Law Reform

More details

The process for buying and selling property is completely outdated and corrupted by out of check Estate Agents, Rogue Solicitors and people who generally lack integrity and conviction. Bad practices by all have caused many to loose a lot of money and faith in the whole system. Our neighbours (Scotland) and cross Atlantic partners (USA) have developed systems which eliminate many bad practices including renegotiating once a sale has been agreed, Gazumping, Gazundering and delays through negligence.

It is time this government did something which truly benefits the masses and closed many of the loopholes which make this system archaic and out of place in a 21st century society.

I propose that the government reviews the whole residential/commercial buying and selling process, and implements a clear concise system that implements the best features of alternate systems and creates a process which locks in both parties once an offer has been agreed and speeds up the process on whole.
