Buying & Selling Land or Property in Gambia

Most property buyers use the services of an Estate Agent to help them find a property. Most (but not all) estate agents are, of course, honest, but however honest and helpful they may be you must remember that they are only paid if the property is sold and that they are not able to give you independent legal advice.

Once you have found a property that you would like to buy you will almost certainly be asked to sign some form of reservation or preliminary purchase contract.

It is far better to sign NOTHING until it has been checked by your lawyer. This can, usually, be done quickly.

Be very careful before using the services of the estate agent’s “own” lawyers. Are they looking after your interests or the interests of the agent who is providing all their work?
