What is Conveyancing?
Conveyancing refers to the legal process of transferring property ownership from one party to another. It involves various tasks and legal obligations that ensure a smooth and secure property transaction.
When buying or selling a property, both the buyer and the seller enlist the services of a conveyancer or solicitor specializing in property law. The conveyancer plays a vital role in handling all legal aspects, including conducting property searches, reviewing contracts, preparing necessary documents, and registering the change of ownership with the Land Registry.
They also ensure that the property is free from legal issues or restrictions that could affect the transaction. Conveyancing is a crucial step in the property buying or selling process, ensuring that the rights and interests of all parties involved are protected and that the transfer of ownership is legally valid.
