Reservation Fee & Refund Policy
1. Reservation Fee & Refund Eligibility
When an investor reserves a property through Property Scout Ltd, a reservation fee is required to secure the deal. This fee ensures exclusivity and covers administrative costs.
We understand that due diligence is a crucial part of the investment process. As such, investors are granted a 14-day due diligence period to conduct their own assessments, including surveys, legal checks, and financial verifications.
2. 14-Day Refund Policy
Investors are eligible for a full refund of the reservation fee if they decide not to proceed with the property within 14 days of payment, provided that:
- Due diligence reveals significant issues affecting the investment.
- The investor formally requests a refund within the 14-day period.
3. Property Availability & Replacement
In the event that a property falls through due to circumstances beyond our control (e.g., vendor withdrawal, unforeseen legal complications):
- The investor will be offered a full refund, OR
- The investor may choose to transfer their reservation fee to a similar alternative property.
4. Non-Refundable Circumstances
A refund will not be issued if:
- The investor fails to complete their due diligence within the 14-day period.
- The investor decides to withdraw after the 14-day period has expired.
- The deal falls through due to the investor’s inaction or inability to proceed (e.g., failure to secure financing).
5. Refund Request Process
To request a refund, investors must submit a written request via email to info@propertyscoutltd.co.uk within the 14-day refund window.
Refunds will be processed within 48 hours, unless additional information is required. If further details are needed to review the refund request, processing may take up to 7-10 days.
