WHY DO I WRITE THIS BLOG


I hope the Blog will be educational and help the public to understand the Conveyancing process and my profession. Sadly, we are often painted as the “bad guys” whilst being hampered by over-regulation not experienced by others in the Conveyancing sector.


THIS BLOG is your Go to Guide if you are buying, selling or are a homeowner. It is a useful tool for anyone involved in the Conveyancing sector including investors and sourcers.


Within the Blog I explain what your Conveyancer is doing, and why.


Conveyancers are heavily regulated and the government has made us the frontline for anti-money laundering, ID and property fraud. We often refer to this as compliance and due-diligence.


Many clients don’t realise that our purpose is to protect them and their mortgage lender and not to slow the process down.


We are trying to ensure there are no title defects and nothing will reduce property value on resale or remortgage.  Lenders insist on Conveyancers being involved so they can be sure the property is adequate security for their loan and there are no legal defects.  This is why we do what we do.


I sincerely hope this Blog goes some way towards demystifying the Conveyancing process and assisting my profession.






NB: PLEASE NOTE


I do NOT carry out any legal work via the blog. I offer the blog as a FREE resource and this is entirely pro bono. If you instruct me to carry out conveyancing for you that will be chargeable. Conveyancing is NOT a public service and I reserve the right to disinstruct where necessary. Please note that I will not tolerate abuse or harassment. I expect to be treated with courtesy.
