What does a property lawyer do?

A conveyancing solicitor helps the buyer with the legal side of a home purchase. Your solicitor will order property searches, raise enquires of the seller, review the contract of sale and handle post-completion tasks, like paying SDLT.

Newport Pagnell conveyancing solicitors may undertake checks related to listed buildings and properties in conservation areas or green belt land.

Are you purchasing a home with a mortgage?

During the conveyancing process, your solicitor also has to take care of legal matters for the bank or building society. If your conveyancing solicitor isn't accepted on your mortgage provider's panel, it could take weeks longer to buy your house.

We work with lawyers who can represent the vast majority of mortgage lenders, such as major banks like Nationwide, to smaller lenders like Yorkshire Building Society and Keystone Finance - ensuring your transaction will complete without delay.

Selling a property in Newport Pagnell

When selling a home in Newport Pagnell, your conveyancer will prepare the necessary documentation, including title deeds and the various property information forms.

A seller's solicitor's duties include resolving issues like a dispute with the freeholder and answering the buyer's solicitor's enquiries.

In order to assure a smooth transfer of ownership, your lawyer will also work with both sides, such as agents, managing agents and lenders.

Does it take longer to sell a leasehold property?

Yes. Sale conveyancing for leasehold properties can take much longer.

The buyer's solicitor must review this leasehold-related paperwork, like management company information and an up-to-date statement of service charges. Typically, delays are due to the time it takes your lawyer to get these documents together.

It can take weeks to collect the managing agent's information if it is difficult to contact the agent responsible for managing the property, so your lawyer should get this underway even before you have found a buyer.
