Private House Sale Proceedure

[carlyai]

So you are in the process of selling a house in Pattaya.

Everyone agreed on a price, intention of purchase within 1 month drawn up and deposit given.

On the day of the sale completion we go to the land office, the buyer gives us a cashiers cheque, we then sign the house land paper and register with the new owner.

This is how I think it goes, is this correct please?

Is receiving a cashier's cheque the same as receiving the money, or can they somehow cancel the cheque after the land office papers are signed?

Any things I have to watch out for?

Thanks.

 Is the house in a Company?

If so then all elements of your post are irrelevant.

If  it is in a a Thai name then your post is correct.

 

A cashiers cheque cannot be cancelled by the provider.

In a Thai name...thanks.

 

We should also go to the utilities places and cancel water and electricity?

Or do you take the new owners with us to transfer utilities to them.

 The new owner will simply take the Chanote to the power and water providers.

By this stage to Chanote is in the new owners name.
