 A conveyancing solicitor will help oversee the exchange of contracts between parties, when buying property or land. A conveyancing solicitor will help insure that the buyer secures the title to the land as well as any rights that run with the land; the solicitor will also notify the buyer of any restrictions placed on the land they are buying.
The exchange normally starts with the buyer negotiating an agreed price with the seller then organising a survey and have the solicitor (or conveyancer) carry out their searches and pre-contract enquiries. The seller's solicitor or conveyancers will a draft contract which will have to be approved by the buyer's solicitor. The seller's solicitor will also collect and prepare property information to be provided to the buyer's solicitors.
Conveyancing solicitors have to carry all this out within the parameters of the National Law Societies protocol for domestic conveyancing.
