FAQs
What is conveyancing?
Conveyancing refers to the legal process of transferring ownership of real estate (property) from one party to another; and is usually carried out by a licensed conveyancer or solicitor.
Why should I choose a licensed conveyancer?
There are numerous reasons why choosing a licensed
conveyancer is a wise move:
- Licensed conveyancers know property law inside out
and will place their in-depth understanding at your service. - They are specialist professionals in the legal
intricacies of buying and selling property. A licensed conveyancer is qualified
and experienced to expertly assist in the process. - The sole focus of licensed conveyancers is on
property transactions, meaning they will not be distracted by other types of
legal work. - They carry professional indemnity and fidelity
insurance, meaning that clients are always covered in the event of an error. You
can safely leave property transactions in the hands of a licensed conveyancer.
How do I ensure I choose a good conveyancer?
Choose a licensed conveyancer who will speak to you in plain English, not legal jargon. This will give you a clear understanding of your legal rights and obligations. You need a conveyancer who is professional, capable and experienced, and who has great attention to detail. Ask family, friends or colleagues for recommendations. Check the website of your conveyancing firm for testimonials by satisfied clients. Word of mouth is usually the best recommendation.
At what point in the process should I use the services of a conveyancer?
The earlier in the process, the better. When selling a
property, the contract will need to be prepared before the property goes on the
market. Speak to a licensed conveyancer before you put your house on the
market.
When buying a property, get in touch with a licensed
conveyancer before you start looking for your property, so that you understand
the legal requirements of the buying process and can factor legal costs into
your budget. More knowledge will help your purchase proceed as fast as
possible.
