Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring the ownership of property or land from one person to another. This is usually carried out by a solicitor.
This is a breakdown of the conveyancing process:
- Find out from the sellers who owns the boundaries, whether they have had any disputes with neighbours and what fixtures and fittings are included.
- Check copies of any guarantees on the property such as new windows or other building works, including details of planning permissions and building regulation certificates.
- Check the seller is the legal owner of the property and prepare a Report on Title
- Carry out local authority searches and check plans for the local area.
- Pay stamp duty tax on the property.
- Arrange registration of title into your name.
We have a panel of solicitors that we can recommend due to positive experiences with them from ourselves and our clients, we have found that these solicitors have always worked in a professional, fast and efficient manor for our vendors and buyers to get the conveyancing carried out as quickly as possible, so their sale can proceed to a satisfactory conclusion.
They also provide regular timely updates of the process to keep you fully informed throughout. We know this is reassuring to our buyers and sellers.
