Why do I need a conveyancing solicitor?
1. You’re getting a property law expert
Conveyancers and solicitors who specialise in conveyancing are experts in a complicated legal area with a complex process. A conveyancer will need to:
- Review all legal documents
- Manage local authority and environmental searches
- Check contracts drawn up by a seller’s conveyancer
- Work with your mortgage lender to make sure all the necessary information has been provided
- Pay any related fees and register you as the new owner with the Land Registry
2. You’re covered by their insurance
Legal experts have negligence insurance to protect you if things go wrong, which can happen during a complex home transaction. If you try to handle conveyancing on your own, you might be personally responsible for any errors, leading to unexpected legal expenses.
3. You save on time and stress
The conveyancing process can be long and complex, but with an experienced solicitor, it becomes hassle-free.
An experienced conveyancing solicitor will take on that burden and turn it into a seamless process. They’ll keep you well-informed throughout the buying or selling journey.
It’s not worth taking the risk of trying to do it yourself, when any mistakes can cause delays or cost you significant amounts of money.
4. You won’t worry about difficult discussions
You won’t need to contact the other party’s solicitor directly. Your solicitor will handle all communication on your behalf. They’re experts in asking the right questions, acting in your best interests, and skilfully negotiating for your benefit to ensure a smooth home transaction.
