What is conveyancing?

Conveyancing is the legal transfer of a property from one owner to another and leasing or mortgaging a property. During the process a conveyancer completes a number of key stages to ensure the property is ready to exchange contracts and complete the transaction. They also aim to ensure all third parties, e.g. mortgage lenders and estate agents, are up to date to avoid unnecessary delays.

It can also encompass mortgaging or remortgaging a property, the transfer of land or rights to land, and the grant or transfer of a lease.
