Conveyancing — The Legal Process of Transferring Property Ownership

Conveyancing is the legal process by which ownership of a property is transferred from seller to buyer. Instructing a solicitor early — and being well-prepared — is one of the most effective ways to keep your sale on track.

Overview

The conveyancing process begins when an offer is accepted and ends at completion. Sellers who instruct a solicitor before marketing begins — and who have their property information forms completed and their documents in order — can significantly reduce the time from offer to exchange. The Property Sale Pack Toolkit includes a Conveyancer Preparation Guide to help you get ready.

What this covers

  • Understanding the conveyancing process as a seller
  • Instructing a solicitor and knowing what to expect
  • Preparing your property information forms before marketing
  • Understanding solicitor enquiries and how to respond efficiently
