What is the Transfer?

Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring ownership of real estate from one person to another. It includes several critical steps from preparing and reviewing legal documents, conducting legal searches and consultations, to completing the process with signing contracts and registering property.

Common Questions about the Transfer

 

  1. What Documents are Necessary for the Transfer?

    Essential documents include the title of the property, contracts of sale, search certificates, details of mortgages (if any), and other documents relating to the planning and use of the land.
  2. How Long Does the Transfer Process Take?

    The time can vary significantly depending on the complexity of the deal and any problems that may arise during searches and enquiries. Generally, the process can take between 8 and 12 weeks from offer acceptance to completion.
  3. What Searches Are Performed During the Transfer?

    Common searches include local record searches, planning checks, environmental and flood searches, among others, which help identify any legal issues or restrictions on the property.
  4. Who Performs the Transfer?

    A conveyancing attorney or licensed conveyancer can carry out the process. It is crucial to choose an experienced professional with good references to ensure that all legal aspects are handled correctly.
  5. What are the Costs Associated with the Transfer?

    Costs may vary, but generally include attorney or conveyancer fees, search costs, registration fees, and other administrative expenses. It is important to obtain a detailed quote before beginning the process.
