Solicitors, Conveyancing and Private Sales
Please Note.
This is a simple description of conveyancing and is not meant as a definitive guide.
You must seek professional advice from a licensed conveyancer or specialist conveyancing solicitor if you are selling a property.
Conveyancing refers to the legal and administrative work carried out during the transfer of ownership any building, property or land from one person to another. Conveyancing begins once an offer has been made and accepted for a property, and solicitor details have been exchanged by the two parties.
Both the buyer and seller will need their own independent solicitors. It is best to think about conveyancing as soon as you decide to put your property up for sale as this will enable the entire process to run smoothly.
