Which is a formal document entered into by both the buyer and the seller that sets out the intention to proceed with the sale of a property. It typically includes a fixed reservation period during which the seller agrees not to negotiate with other parties, providing the buyer with reassurance and reducing the risk of gazumping. Equally, the Buyer is showing their commitment to the Seller.

Both parties agree to certain terms and timelines, and a reservation fee is paid by the buyer of £500.
