Conveyancing Solicitors vs Conveyancers

If you’re looking for someone to handle the legal side of buying for you, you can choose one of two options, have a Solicitors or a Licenced Conveyancers. Solicitors do many aspects and types of law, from Property and Land Law to Business law. While Licenced Conveyancers strictly handle just property law and are unable to practice any other types of law. The legal work you’ll get from Conveyancers and Solicitors is the same, conveyancing is known for being a simple legal procedure. The key difference between the two is the price, Licenced Conveyancers normally are less expensive and easier to work with.

Can I do my own Conveyancing?

It is possible for someone to handle their own legal work, but it’s difficult and labour intensive. We DO NOT advise anyone to do DIY conveyancing. If the property purchase or sale involves a mortgage, the mortgage lender will require a property solicitor or licensed conveyancer is used for the conveyancing.
