Buying a property in St Albans takes seven main steps, from having your offer accepted to receiving the keys on completion day:

Offer accepted: the seller accepts your offer and you instruct a solicitor or conveyancer.
Legal checks: your solicitor reviews the contract and title and carries out property searches.
Mortgage and surveys: you arrange your mortgage, mortgage valuation and any survey.
Deposit: you pay a deposit, usually 10% of the purchase price.
Exchange of contracts: both sides sign and the sale becomes legally binding.
Completion: the remaining funds are transferred and you collect the keys.
After completion: your solicitor pays Stamp Duty Land Tax and registers the property in your name.

It depends on your budget and lifestyle. Central St Albans suits those who want period homes near the station, while Chiswell Green, Jersey Farm and Bricket Wood are popular with families. Harpenden and Wheathampstead offer larger homes in a village setting.
