๐โ๏ธ What are the current Covid rules for moving home? ๐ค Here's everything you need to know, courtesy of Rightmove ๐
Can I view a property in person?
โก Yes you can, as long as you haven’t had a recent positive test for Covid-19 ๐งช
โก If you have, you must still self-isolate for a minimum of five days ๐ซ
โก If you take a lateral flow test on day five and six of your isolation and both are negative, you can stop isolating ๐ฆ
โก However, if you’re not fully vaccinated and you live in the same household as someone with Covid-19, you are legally required to stay at home and self-isolate for 10 full days if you don’t have negative results from two lateral flow tests taken a day apart ๐
Do I have to wear a face mask?
โก There is no longer a legal requirement to do so ๐จ๐ฉ
โก The government suggests that you continue to wear a face covering in crowded and enclosed spaces where you may come into contact with other people you do not normally meet ๐ท
โก If you’re viewing a property, an Estate Agent or Homeowner might ask you to ๐
Can I insist that people wear a face mask while viewing my property?
โก Yes you can โ
โก Even though it's not legally enforceable, it’s your home so you make the rules ๐
โ๏ธ
โก If you’re a tenant and there are viewings planned of your home, it’s a good idea to reach an agreement with your Landlord about what’s best for you ๐ค
What happens if I test positive close to the completion date?
โก You should delay the move until you have finished self-isolating โ
โก Solicitors can make contractual provisions to manage the risks and possible implications of a delay, and can talk through your options with you ๐
Can tradespeople come inside my home?
โก Yes they can, unless they have had a recent positive Covid-19 test, or anyone in your home is self-isolating โ
