FAQS
What is Conveyancing?
The term 'Conveyancing' refers to all the legal and administrative work associated with transferring the ownership of land or buildings from one owner to another. The conveyancing process starts after an offer has been made and accepted to buy a property and the Conveyancers' details are exchanged by the two parties.
Most people hire a Conveyancer to undertake their conveyancing. It is possible to do the conveyancing yourself, but it is time consuming and also risky if you lack the necessary expertise.
Will I need to go into the Conveyancers office to sign all relevant documentation?
In the majority of circumstances it is not necessary for your Conveyancer to see you in person. All issues can invariably be dealt with by correspondence either by email, telephone or by letter. The distance between you and your Conveyancer is therefore of no relevance in relation to your property transaction.
Will I be able to speak to my Conveyancer whenever I need to?
Your Conveyancer of members of his or her support team, should always be available for you to speak to during normal working hours. The response time for returning calls in relation to messages left is at present two hours. You will have at least five points of contact available to you at any time that you decide to call.
How long does a normal conveyancing transaction take?
An average conveyancing transaction takes anywhere between 6 - 8 weeks to complete. We have sold and purchase properties in the past within 48 hours of receipt of instructions. In the majority of circumstances most Clients do not wish to move to these timescales!
