The cost of a conveyancing solicitor varies depending on the complexity of the transaction and the type of property involved. Fees are typically split into legal fees (the solicitor’s charges) and disbursements (third-party costs such as search fees and Land Registry charges). At Wellers, we offer clear, fixed-fee pricing where possible, with full transparency on any additional costs that may arise.
While many solicitors are qualified to handle conveyancing, it’s best to choose a solicitor who specialises in property law. Conveyancing involves specific legal processes and time-sensitive actions, so working with an experienced conveyancing solicitor ensures your transaction is handled efficiently and in accordance with current regulations.
It’s a good idea to contact a conveyancing solicitor as soon as you decide to make an offer on a property. Getting legal support early allows your solicitor to act quickly once your offer is accepted, helping to prevent delays and ensure the transaction progresses smoothly.
Conveyancing solicitors carry out a range of property searches to uncover any issues that could affect your purchase. These typically include local authority searches (for planning or building restrictions), environmental searches (for flood risk or contamination), water and drainage searches, and sometimes additional searches depending on the property’s location.
Conveyancing usually takes between 8 to 12 weeks from the point an offer is accepted to completion. However, timescales can vary depending on factors such as the speed of third parties, the complexity of the chain, and how quickly documents are returned. Your solicitor will keep you informed throughout the process.
