Frequently Asked Questions
Technically, the answer is yes, but there are caveats. Despite the fact that there are many guides online that outline DIY conveyancing, the process is extremely bureaucratic, and mistakes are very risky.
In spite of the risks, you can save money on conveyancing by doing it yourself. When applying for a mortgage, however, you are likely to be required by your lender to hire a practising conveyancer to ensure that no costly mistakes are made during the transaction.
The total time from acceptance of your house offer to completion is usually 12-16 weeks. While this might seem like a long time to make a transaction, there is a great deal of work involved.
The pre-contract work involves local research, surveys, and contract drafts. Afterwards, you will need to take into account the time it will take to arrange your mortgage as well as the review period for all necessary paperwork.
There is, of course, a possibility of completing your move faster. Nonetheless, these are industry standards, and this is a transaction that you shouldn't rush.
The conveyancing process normally begins once your offer on the property you intend to purchase is accepted by a solicitor. A conveyancing solicitor might, however, be of assistance at the beginning of your search so that once a property offer has been accepted, they can take action right away.
You may be able to benefit from a solicitor's local knowledge of the area in the sale of your home. Conveyancing, however, is a very standardised process that solicitors and conveyancers perform across the country and, as a result, local knowledge is not usually required.
When instructing a conveyancer, it is more important to choose a firm that is experienced, thorough and has a stellar reputation rather than basing your decision on its location.
