Conveyancing FAQs
How does the conveyancing process work in Tadley?
There are three major stages in the conveyancing process, these are:
- Offer and acceptance
- Exchange of contracts
- Completion
An offer accepted by the seller creates a verbal agreement. Either party is able to pull out of the transaction as this verbal agreement is not legally binding yet.
There are a number of property checks that the buyer and their chosen conveyancer will carry out. These are:
- Reviewing property information provided by the seller and making further enquiries if necessary (done by the conveyancing solicitor)
- Conducting conveyancing property searches, such as local authority checks (done by the conveyancing solicitor)
- Carrying out an independent survey (done by the buyer)
At this stage, should the buyer need one, they can apply for a mortgage.
If the buyer is satisfied with the checks and both are willing to proceed, the next stage is signing and exchanging the contracts. This makes the transactions legally binding. If there are any attempts to pull out of the sale, there could be a financial penalty.
Completion is the next stage, where the transaction will need to be registered with HM Land Registry, and the seller will need to vacate, ready for the buyer to move in.
How long does conveyancing take in Tadley?
Each conveyancing transaction has its own specific circumstances, so it is not possible to provide an exact time frame for how long the process will take. However, the average conveyancing time frame takes between 12 and 14 weeks.
It might be possible that your transaction faces delays. Should this apply, the conveyancing team will keep you up-to-date and ensure you are aware of your options.
What searches are involved in conveyancing in Tadley?
Your conveyancing solicitor will undertake various searches on the property. This is done to ensure there are no pressing problems that need immediate addressing.
There are three major conveyancing searches. These are:
- Local authority checks – to check the surrounding area for planning, pollution, highway pollution or other related issues
- Environmental searches – to check for issues such as flooding or land contamination
- Water and drainage searches – to check matters such as water and drainage access
Depending on the property and where it is situated, it may be necessary for additional searches to be carried out. We will let you know if this is required for your transaction.
