Frequently asked questions
What exactly is conveyancing?
Simply put, the process of conveyancing is the legal journey involved in buying, selling or remortgaging a home. It covers all the important checks, paperwork and ownership transfers to make sure everything’s done properly. Every home move is different and the timeframe depends on factors such as the complexity of the transaction and how quickly all parties involved (including the other side’s conveyancer, mortgage lenders and surveyors) can complete their tasks. Typically, it can take anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks. We’ll always keep you updated on the estimated timescales. Need help with other legal terms? Please visit our glossary page.

What are searches in conveyancing?
Searches are enquiries made to various authorities, like the local council or water company, to gather important information about the home you’re buying or selling. This helps to uncover potential issues or factors that might affect your decision, such as planning restrictions, environmental concerns or drainage problems. Need help with other legal terms? Please visit our glossary page.
What is the difference between exchange and completion?
Exchange of contracts is the point at which the sale or purchase becomes legally binding. Both buyer and seller sign the contracts, and a completion date is agreed. Completion day is the actual day the ownership of the home is transferred, and the buyer receives the keys. Need help with other legal terms? Please visit our glossary page.
