"By the end of the whole ordeal we had just literally drowned ourselves in paperwork - why why why did we not just leave it to the professionals?" - Martine James.
As Martine is acutely aware, buying or selling your house can be a real headache especially when it comes to the legal paperwork you are responsible for organising. Some home owners try to do it alone, but most turn to a solicitor or professional online conveyancing expert. A licensed conveyancer is particularly qualified to do this manner of legal work on your behalf - and hiring one may well be the wisest decision you make for the sale or purchase of your house.
Personal Solicitor or Professional Online Conveyancing?
When buying a new TV, do you want advice from the guy who has to worry about TVs, Videos, Computers and everything else - or do you want the TV specialists? This crucial decision can result in your conveyancing process being hassle free or only the start of a legal nightmare. Go for the pros; professional online conveyancing companies provide solicitors who specialise in helping you buy or sell your home at the best price for you and they take care of the searches, surveys and all manner of complications that you would otherwise need to worry about yourself. It really is the best of both worlds.
The Nitty-Gritty of Home Buying/Selling
As those with experience know - buying or selling a house can be fraught with potential traps. Are you sitting on a coal mine? Is the government about to build a new road across your front porch? Is Tesco's about to open up the latest superstore next door? A professional online conveyancing team can answer all these questions for you - without you having to lift a finger. They also manage the survey of the house for you, so if you're buying and want to know what repairs might need doing (in order to renegotiate that final ten thousand!) they will find out for you.
By default, and by law, not all searches are required to be undertaken. Your lender will insist that your professional online conveyancing specialist does a drainage search, to check if waste water drains into the public sewers or into a private sewer. They may also insist that a land registry check be undertaken to ensure the property in question hasn't changed hands. Finally, a land charges search will check that you're not bankrupt. Professional online conveyancing solicitors do the additional checks for you - to cover all the angles.
Handling the Changeover
Professional online conveyancing solicitors can handle things for you right up to, and sometimes beyond, the moment you walk into your new house. They will communicate with the other party's solicitor and arrange a handover date and completion date. If you like, they can even handle the last minute negotiations for you.
"Once I finally convinced Mark to hire a professional, things instantly picked up. We've been able to concentrate on the things that matter to us and leave the legal complications to the professional online conveyancing people." - Martine James.
