Question 1

What is Conveyancing?

Accepted Answer

Conveyancing law in the UK focuses on the legal process of transferring property ownership from one person to another.

While there isn't a specific legislation governing conveyancing, various statutes and regulations contribute to the process, such as the Land Registration Act 2002 and the Law of Property Act 1925.

A conveyancer guides clients through the legal steps, including property searches, title checks, and drafting or reviewing contracts. Conveyancing solicitors also ensure that all legal requirements are met, including obtaining necessary permits and adhering to property laws. They play a role in the exchange of contracts, completion of the sale, and registration of the property in the new owner's name.
