What is a draft contract?

✅What this milestone means

Your conveyancer assembles thedraft contract pack: the contract itself, title documents, Property Information (TA6), Fittings & Contents (TA10), search results and any warranties. When you’ve already completed a Moove Ready Pack, almost every component is sitting in their inbox on day one - so your solicitor can hit “send” to the buyer’s lawyer the moment an offer is accepted.

💡Why early contract preparation speeds everything up

1.Zero-day turnaround– buyers receive the pack within 24 hours instead of waiting weeks for searches and forms.

2.Fewer enquiries– clear, complete paperwork up-front reduces the volume of follow-up questions.

3.Chain confidence– quick contracts reassure everyone above and below you that the deal will stay on schedule.

🛠️What’s happening in the background

•Moove Ready Pack– has already confirmed ID verification, and delivered material information and search results straight into your solicitor’s case file.

•Conveyancer– plugs those documents into the Law Society templates, adds the title plan, and pre-answers standard enquiries (planning consents, boiler certificates, guarantees).

•Open Moove– time-stamps the draft-contract milestone and notifies the buyer’s side automatically when the time is right.

📌What you need to do now

1. Review the TA6 and TA10 your solicitor prepared from your Moove Ready answers - sign or update any sections that need tweaks.

2. Upload any newly found paperwork (e.g., recent building-reg sign-offs) to your Moove Room so it’s included before the pack is issued.

3. Confirm the deposit figure and proposed completion window you want stated in the contract.

⏭️Next 3 things to prepare for

1.Legal enquiries– even with a perfect pack, the buyer’s solicitor will raise a short list - be ready to reply quickly.

2.Mortgage valuation / survey– the buyer will instruct these once they have the contract; keep the property presentable.

3.Exchange planning– fast contracts mean exchange could happen a LOT quicker; you can order removals, storage and set up utilities in your Moove Room.
