"Sold" boards should only be allowed after exhange of contract
If you had the Scottish system where offers are binding and missives are
concluded typically 10 days after closing date, Sold would mean sold.
(Then
again, only a small percentage of property gets near an estate agent in
the
first place :-)
I saw a castle ruin with a large, painted "for sale" sign on its walls in
Galloway but there was no indication of a contact :-(
So saying, Scots law has a lot to commend it in many ways.
