HOW THE CONVEYANCE PROCESS WORKS?

To help you get an insight into how a typical conveyance transaction works, here are some information and guidelines for you:

HIRE A SOLICITOR - Whether you intend to sell or purchase a property, first hire a solicitor and inform him or her about what you are looking for. In case of making a purchase, what kind of property you would like to buy. It's best to keep a checklist with you to keep a note of the features when you go around viewing properties or finding a seller. Once you find a buyer or your dream house, then your solicitor would set out to gather information and help you with the legal procedures.

SEARCHES & ENQUIRIES - For property transactions, the solicitor's role is to submit queries called searches regarding the property to be transacted. Their job is to uncover factors that surveyors or agents may be ignorant of and which could hamper the buyer's happiness regarding the purchase. Searches usually include restrictions or charges of use on the property, ownership, liabilities regarding water resources, environment search, location-centric or other optional searches and property rights.

MORTGAGE- The next step involves securing your mortgage. Once the lender or buyer accepts your offer, a contract shall be drawn for which the conveyancer has to clarify and confirm all information. The lender may evaluate the property and ensure whether the offer made is worth it. The solicitor representing you may advise for or against purchasing/ selling the property and carry out the legal documentation securing a mortgage.

SIGNING AND EXCHANGING CONTRACT- Once the contract is drawn and a thorough inspection is done, you and your lender shall sign the contract separately on identical papers. Discuss with your conveyance provider about the exchange within a five day cooling period to secure your property. Once the contracts are exchanged, as a purchaser, you shall deposit the price agreed upon and/or vice-versa.

SETTLEMENT- This final phase takes about half an hour to complete after one final inspection. After which you become the new owner of the property purchased and you can move in whenever you please. If you buy a mortgage-free property, then the deed shall be directly sent to you by your conveyance provider, once it's received from the Land Registry.
