Understanding Conveyancing & Remortgage

Property transactions can feel complex, especially if it’s your first time or the paperwork starts piling up. Whether you’re buying, selling, or remortgaging, we’re here to break it down into manageable steps and make sure your interests are protected throughout.

Buying or Selling a Property

From reviewing contracts and conducting searches to dealing with mortgage lenders and registering the sale, we manage every part of the legal process — so you can focus on your next chapter.

Remortgaging Your Home

We handle the full legal side of your remortgage, including redemption statements, lender conditions, and title updates — helping you switch smoothly with no unexpected delays.

Leasehold Support

Leasehold properties come with extra legal steps. We’ll review the lease, work with managing agents, and make sure deadlines and documentation are properly handled.

Stamp Duty & Land Registry

We’ll calculate and manage your Stamp Duty payment and take care of registering your ownership — ensuring everything is finalised and properly recorded with the Land Registry.

What to Expect

We understand that moving home or refinancing can feel like a big leap. Our role is to make the legal process feel simple, clear, and manageable — with friendly support and expert guidance throughout.

Your Conveyancing or Remortgage Journey

Every transaction is different, but the steps are often more straightforward than you might expect. Here’s how we help keep things running smoothly from beginning to end.

Step 1: Getting Started

We’ll take your details, explain how the process works, and provide a clear, written quote. You’ll have one point of contact to guide you from start to finish.

Step 2: Legal Checks and Preparatio

We’ll carry out ID checks, review property titles or leases, and request documents like redemption statements or management packs if needed.

Step 3: Contracts, Searches & Mortgage Offers

Our team reviews contracts, conducts searches, and checks your mortgage offer to make sure everything is legally sound and in your best interest.

Step 4: Signing & Completion

Once everything’s in place, we’ll arrange for you to sign the final documents, handle any funds, and complete the transaction on your behalf.

Step 5: Registration & Final Details

After completion, we submit any Stamp Duty payments and register your ownership with the Land Registry — keeping you updated until all is finalised.
