Here’s a clear overview of the key steps involved in the conveyancing journey when buying a home.
Once you instruct us, we liaise with your seller's solicitor to request a clear, accurate contract pack, including property information forms, fixtures and fittings lists, and any supporting documents.
We order all the essential searches (local authority, environmental and water & drainage searches) to check for hidden risks or legal issues, and interpret the results for you so you can decide how to proceed with complete confidence.
We manage every enquiry directly with the seller’s solicitor, clearly reviewing their responses and keeping you informed, so any issues are resolved swiftly and your purchase stays firmly on course.
Once searches and enquiries are complete, both parties sign the contracts. We explain your commitments, agree the completion date, and exchange contracts to make the purchase legally binding.
On completion day, we arrange the transfer of funds and confirm when you can collect the keys, finalising the legal transfer of the property to you.
Track your purchase from start to finish with real-time updates and 24/7 access to your case.

Residential conveyancing refers to the legal process of transferring property ownership from the seller to the buyer. It involves checks, searches, contracts, and ensuring the title is legally sound.
A conveyancer is a licensed professional (or solicitor) who handles the legal aspects of your property purchase, including drafting contracts, conducting property searches, and managing the exchange of funds.
On average, buying a house in the UK takes around 16 weeks from offer acceptance to completion, but it can vary depending on the chain, mortgage processing, and search results.
Conveyancing fees for buyers typically range from £1,000 to £1,500, excluding additional costs like searches and Land Registry fees.
You should instruct a conveyancer as soon as your offer is accepted to avoid delays and ensure the legal process begins promptly. Starting conveyancing for buying as soon as your offer is accepted helps reduce delays and keeps your purchase on track.
