What is conveyancing?

Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring ownership of a property from one person to another. A solicitor manages the legal work required to ensure the transaction is completed correctly.

This includes reviewing contracts, carrying out property searches, raising enquiries with the other party’s solicitor and ensuring all legal requirements are satisfied before completion.

Working with an experienced conveyancing solicitor helps ensure your property transaction progresses efficiently and avoids unnecessary complications.

How the conveyancing process works

1. Instructing your solicitor

Once your offer has been accepted, your solicitor begins the conveyancing process and opens your file.

2. Property searches and checks

Searches are carried out with local authorities and other organisations to identify any issues affecting the property.

3. Reviewing contracts and enquiries

Your solicitor reviews the legal documents and raises enquiries with the seller’s solicitor if clarification is needed.

4. Mortgage arrangements

We work with your lender to ensure all mortgage conditions are satisfied before the exchange of contracts.

5. Exchange of contracts

Once all checks are complete and both parties agree, contracts are exchanged, and the completion date is set.

 6. Completion

On completion day, the purchase is finalised, and ownership of the property transfers to you.
