Margaret Metcalfe, May 2010

Please note that it is a legal requirement for an Energy Performance Certificate to be produced prior to marketing for either the sale or leasing of commercial property, including hotels and B&Bs.

Your ability to sell privately

Even if you are already listing your property with an agency you can usually market your business privately and, if you find the buyer independently, will not be liable to pay your agent a commission. This applies if you have signed up to a sole agency agreement as well as a multi-agency agreement with your agent. But you will not be able to sell privately if you are bound into the less common scenario of a 'sole seller' contract. Please check your situation if you are unsure.

We always advise sellers to discuss their plans to advertise on www.hotelstobuy.co.uk with any existing agent.
