Conveyancing FAQs
How much are conveyancing fees?
The costs involved depend on the property searches you require, the type of property you are purchasing and the purchase price. Please contact our conveyancing team for a quotation.
How long does the conveyancing process take?
On average, conveyancing takes between 8 and 12 weeks. It depends on the length of your property chain, the time it takes for search results and mortgage offers to come back and other factors.
At Blossom Law, we work proactively to minimise delays because we know how stressful it can be for clients.
When should I engage a conveyancer when buying a house?
We recommend finding a conveyancing solicitor as soon as you start the search for a property. You can complete initial paperwork, such as proof of identity immediately, which saves valuable time later.
Once you have agreed to a property sale or purchase, you need to instruct your conveyancer to begin the legal process.
Can I buy or sell a house without a solicitor?
There is no legal requirement to instruct a solicitor when you buy or sell a property. However, if you need a mortgage, it is likely to be a condition of your lender as they want to safeguard their interest.
Conveyancing is a complicated legal process, so if you decide not to use a solicitor it is a significant risk.There may be legal issues with the property that could cost you hundreds of thousands of pounds, or even mean you cannot sell the property.
Buying a house is a huge financial commitment. Instructing a professional conveyancing solicitor is a sensible investment and offers you peace of mind.
