What does a conveyancing solicitor do?

During the home purchase, the conveyancing solicitor will handle all the legal elements of transferring ownership from the seller to the buyer. They will raise questions for the seller's solicitor, order property searches, review contracts and ensure that post-purchase requirements, like paying Stamp Duty, are completed.

Further to the standard checks and searches, Hoyland conveyancing solicitors could also undertake checks for issues related to former industrial sites, such as ground contamination.

Purchasing a property with a mortgage?

When you buy a house, your solicitor also needs to carry out some legal work for the bank.

Being a member of a lender's panel will mean your solicitor is able to represent your lender.

Selling a property in Hoyland

The sale of a Hoyland home will require your conveyancing solicitor to first arrange all the necessary documentation, including the TA6 and TA10 property information forms and the draft contract.

The lawyer will advise on enquiries sent by the buyer's conveyancer, resolve any potential issues and handle the mortgage redemption.

Your lawyer will work with all parties, including agents, lenders and landlords, confirming that the sale of your home completes quickly.

Does the conveyancing for selling leasehold take longer?

Yes, that's correct, it can take considerably longer to carry out the conveyancing on a leasehold house or flat when compared to conveyancing on a freehold house.

The solicitor acting for the buyer will expect to see these documents, such as three years' filed accounts for the property management. The time needed by your solicitor to get these documents together is usually the cause of these delays.

Your conveyancing solicitor should start this process at the earliest opportunity, because this information could take several weeks to collect if it is difficult to contact the managing agent or landlord or they are slow to respond.

How much does conveyancing cost in Hoyland?

Getting a quote takes moments - but understanding what is and isn't included in the quote can be challenging.

Conveyancing legal fees

These fees are what your lawyer charges you for the legal work that they complete during your property transaction. The quote should clearly detail the legal fees, including VAT, that you'll pay when your transaction completes.

Disbursements

The conveyancing quote should also include any disbursements, which are third-party costs, such as Stamp Duty and Land Registry fees.

Check the T's & C's

When you compare conveyancing quotes, make sure you question any charges not set out in your initial quote. Some solicitors' quotes include extra costs in their terms and conditions. This can mean an inflated final bill.
