Residential Property Conveyancing
Each conveyancing process brings its own set of challenges. Local search will reveal possible complications such as local area planning applications and will also determine whether roads are maintained privately, or by the council. Similarly, drainage searches will reveal who is responsible for drain maintenance, while environmental searches could highlight incidents of flooded or contaminated land. As a result of these, and other, potential challenges, it’s important to take legal advice that addresses your unique circumstances.
We’ll adapt our strategy to suit your requirements. We are rigorous in our approach and will look to ensure that your conveyancing process is made clear and hassle-free from start to finish. If you need advice about the complexities of freehold and leasehold, we can help you to understand your options and make an informed decision.
Whether you’re buying, selling, or extending your lease, we’ll ensure that you receive tailored advice. If you have any questions or concerns about any aspect of your house move, we’ll be on hand every step of the way.
Helping You Plan for the Future
Because buying and selling a house represents a significant life event, it’s advisable to ensure your important documentation such as wills and power of attorneys are up-to-date, and your plans for inheritance tax and wealth management remain fit for purpose.
