How we can help with conveyancing in Nottingham
FAQs
Property conveyancing is the legal process of transferring ownership of property.
It involves various tasks such as examining property titles, conducting searches, handling contracts, and facilitating the exchange of funds. Conveyancing ensures a smooth and legally-binding transfer of property rights between parties.
Using a local conveyancing solicitor offers several advantages. A local firm has knowledge of the area’s property market and has proven relationships with local agents and authorities.
The lawyer can provide easier accessibility for face-to-face meetings, and can offer a personalised service tailored to the local area. This helps to ensure a smoother and more efficient property transaction process.
Each conveyancing transaction has its own challenges. So it can be difficult to guarantee exactly how long it will take to finalise. However, straightforward conveyancing work typically takes approximately 16-18 weeks from the acceptance of an offer and the engagement of solicitors.
Occasionally, delays are inevitable. If your conveyancing process is expected to extend beyond this time limit, your residential property solicitor will let you know.
Conveyancing is a process that involves several steps. It varies depending on the type of transaction, but often covers:
- Property searches. These may cover checks with the local authority, environmental searches and HM Land Registry searches. Read more about property searches.
- Enquiries and liaison with authorities based on the results of these searches
- Review of legal documents to ensure that you’re protected from issues in the future
- Dealing with mortgage offers and lender requirements
- Once the legalities are satisfied, documents are signed and a completion date is agreed
- Contracts are exchanged
- Stamp duty is paid
- An application is made to the Land Registry to register you as the new owner
It’s not simple to buy a new home, but the Rothera Bray conveyancing team can guide you through every step of the process.
