Fixed Fee Conveyancing in England covers residential property transactions conducted for a set price. A solicitor or licensed conveyancer handles every stage on behalf of the buyer or seller—drafting contracts, obtaining searches, reviewing replies, handling SDLT, arranging surveys where required, negotiating terms, and registering the transfer at HM Land Registry. The fixed fee covers the client’s core tasks and fringe activities within a defined scope, providing price certainty and a defined service level for the conveyancing process.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The solicitor manages the contract and title review, coordinates mortgage offers, arranges searches and replies, negotiates the terms with the other party, and handles filing at the Land Registry. They also supervise exchanges and completions within the agreed fixed-price framework, ensuring compliance with applicable schemes and deadlines while maintaining the client’s interests throughout the conveyancing cycle.
