Our conveyancing services
Buying a house
Buying a house is a significant milestone, regardless of whether you are putting your foot on the property ladder for the first time or are looking to add to your current portfolio.
Our conveyancing experts will support you with every aspect of buying a house, ensuring all of the legal details are taken care of and the process is completed efficiently.
Buying and selling in a chain
Buying and selling a property in a chain can add an extra layer of complexity to proceedings, as there are likely to be certain elements that are beyond your immediate control. The longer the chain, the greater the risk of experiencing a delay.
We will work closely with you to help you navigate buying and selling a property within a chain, taking every measure to reach completion with minimal disruption.
Selling a house
Understandably, selling a house is often an overwhelming and daunting prospect. It is certainly true that no two sales are the same, but with the right legal advice, you can be confident that you will be able to secure a swift sale.
Our conveyancing solicitors have experience in handling the full spectrum of potential issues that can affect residential property sales and will be available to offer tailored support on your circumstances.
Remortgaging & transfers of equity
There are various scenarios in which it may be appropriate to consider remortgaging or transferring ownership.
Whatever your situation, our conveyancing solicitors will be able to work alongside you to discuss your options and help you make an informed decision that suits your needs in the short and long term.
Conveyancing searches
Conveyancing searches are a fundamental part of the buying process and, in most instances, will inform your decision on how you want to approach your transaction.
Our conveyancing team have experience with all forms of searches, so are well positioned to advise you on the checks you will need, talk you through the outcomes and explain what steps you should be taking as a result.
Equity release
If you need to unlock some of the equity in your property, it may be in your interests to consider Equity Release. If you believe that this is the right option for you, our solicitors can guide you through all of the steps involved in completing the process, making sure that you have all the support you need and that you understand what the implications of the deal will be.
Shared ownership
Shared ownership may be a viable option if you are unable to afford all of the deposit and mortgage payments for a property.
We can work with you to explain how the process works, where it may be beneficial to you and take you through all the steps involved in completing a transaction through the Shared Ownership Scheme.
New build property
Buying a new build property off plan is an attractive prospect for both first time buyers and existing homeowners. However, there are certain pitfalls which need to be carefully considered.
Our team have significant experience in handling new build property transactions and will be available to advise you on the process from start to finish.
Tenancy agreements
It is essential that you have a clear tenancy agreement in place and that you understand its terms.
We help both landlords and tenants navigate the complex rules governing residential tenancies, from initial agreements to dispute resolution.
Leasehold enfranchisement
If you own a leasehold property, its value is often tied to the time left on the existing lease. Leasehold enfranchisement is the process you undergo to either extend a lease or make the individual purchase of the freehold. Our team can support you throughout the entire process of leasehold enfranchisement, making it as straightforward as possible.
Buy to let conveyancing
If you plan to purchase an investment property with the intention of letting it out, there are several potential challenges to consider, such as obtaining a buy-to-let mortgage.
We can take you through this whole process, ensuring you are making a suitable investment and that you are fully prepared to begin letting the property out.
Property auctions
Buying and selling property at auction is very different to the traditional conveyancing process and, as such, requires specialist expertise.
Our conveyancing solicitors offer clear, practical guidance in relation to property auctions, both before and after the hammer drops, ensuring that everything is handled efficiently.
