So, the legal process of transferring property ownership from the seller to the purchaser is known as conveyancing.
Thus if you are buying or remortgaging a property, you will usually require the services of either a Conveyancing Solicitor or a Licensed Conveyancer.
In addition to Licensed Conveyancers and Conveyancing Solicitors being able to handle the legal process of transferring property ownership, there is also a third option - you can actually do it yourself!
However, the process is complicated, and if you have little or no experience in legal conveyancing, it is not advisable to take this route.
Although Solicitors have traditionally undertaken conveyancing work, in recent years licensed conveyancers are taking a small, but increasing share of this type of legal work. It is important to remember that licensed conveyancers are not solicitors. However, they are specialists in all aspects of property conveyancing, and are regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
In essence there are few differences whether you choose a Licensed Conveyancer or Conveyancing Solicitor to undertake your property conveyancing, although you should probably take the following aspects into consideration:
Sure thing! We have arrangements with Solicitors to provide you with an all-in fixed cost for remortgaging, and in the case of a sale and/or purchase, a fixed legal cost on to which disbursements will be added.
Our panel solicitors are a large practice and specialise in conveyancing work. So if you are considering buying a new home or remortgaging your existing one, and require a professional conveyancing service, please do not hesitate to contact one of our mortgage advisors. We'll be happy to discuss your requirements with you.
