Buying and selling a property can be complex and daunting, however enlisting the help of a conveyance solicitor means they are able to sort out all of the intricacies and technicalities involved. Using their wealth of knowledge and experience, they can help to direct you through the process of buying and selling a property. Deciding not to use a conveyance solicitor can bring its own complications and obstacles, so using the help of a solicitor makes this process much easier.

 

If you’re not convinced that conveyance solicitors would be helpful for you in the purchasing or sale of your property, then take a look at this handy guide which will almost certainly change your mind!


Knowledge is Key

Particularly if you are purchasing your new home, you’ll need someone who knows the process inside and out. Not only that, but they can use their knowledge to help you arrive at the best decision for you and your circumstances. If you are a first-time buyer, you might not be completely knowledgeable on the whole process and therefore the role of the conveyance solicitor is to talk you through it. Whether it be helping you through complex paperwork or explaining legal terms, employing the help of a conveyance solicitor can help significantly.


Experience

A glaring benefit of using conveyance solicitors is that they are experienced within that field. When purchasing a property, mortgage lenders often request that a professional in conveyancing needs to be involved. Without the experience of a conveyancing solicitor, you might fail to recognise issues with the home or incorrectly transfer the ownership. This will only make the process more stressful and could even land you in some legal trouble if processes are not followed properly.

 

For instance, the role of the solicitor is to carry out the following tasks:

 

●     Handle Contracts - This could involve transferring the Title of Ownership or preparing a Contract of Sale. They are also responsible for dealing with formal mortgage offers.

●     Conduct Council Search - They have a responsibility to find out information about the property and area before the contract is signed.

●     Manage the Funds - If an offer is accepted, the conveyance solicitor will arrange for the deposit on the property to be paid.



Straightforward Selling Process

In view of the fact that legal processes can be multi-faceted and elaborate, this means that the selling process can see some delays. One way of reducing the risk of any delays is by hiring a conveyance solicitor, as they can help you through the process in a smooth and efficient manner.
