Conveyancing FAQs
How does the conveyancing process work in Chinnor?
Within the conveyancing process, there are three key stages:
- Offer and acceptance
- Exchange of contracts
- Completion
Following an acceptation both parties enter a contract, however either one can change their mind without consequences until it has been signed and exchanged by both the buyer and the seller.
There are a number of checks that the buyer and a solicitor will carry out on the property. These checks include:
- 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)
If necessary, the buyer will apply for a mortgage at this stage.
If the buyer is happy with the results of the checks and the seller is still onboard the contract will be signed. If either party chooses to back out now, there will have to pay a financial penalty as the contract is now legally binding.
When a transfer deed has been submitted to the MH Land Registry and the property transaction has become official, this is known as completion. At this stage, the seller will be required to vacate the property.
