What is Conveyancing?

Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring property ownership from one party to another. This practice falls within property law and is conducted by professionals known as conveyancers. Whether the transaction involves commercial or residential properties, both buyers and sellers will need to engage a conveyancer to facilitate the process.

A conveyancing solicitor or conveyancer wears many hats and can help with various aspects of the transfer, including the following:

  • Drafting and reviewing the property contract
  • Raising pre-contract inquiries
  • Commissioning property searches
  • Liaising with the other party’s legal team
  • Managing the exchange of contracts and dealing with legal completion

The conveyancer will assist you in avoiding common and costly issues such as legal defects in the title to the property, unresolved financial claims on the property and inaccuracies in the property description. Ultimately, the conveyancing solicitor will ensure a smooth and legal property transaction.
