This area covers the law and practice around the creation and negotiation of contracts for the sale, purchase and related transfers of commercial and investment property in England. A solicitor in this field drafts and negotiates the contract for sale or purchase, conducts pre-contract due diligence, negotiates risk allocation, conditions precedent, and any required holdover or overage provisions, and coordinates with title verification at the Land Registry. They also handle ancillary documents such as rent review protections, easements, service charges, and registration, and prepare for completion and post-completion steps including stamping and filing.
Contracts for real estate transactions are structured to manage title risk, ensure funding, and set out timing and conditions for completion. The solicitor identifies potential issues in title and planning, negotiates protections for the client, ensures compliance with UK Tax obligations on transfer, and coordinates with lenders, surveyors, and the other party. Importantly, they prepare and review the missives or contract documents, ensure all conditions are satisfied, and oversee the formal transfer of title and registration at HM Land Registry, preserving client interests throughout.

Tagged solicitor Justin Ginger
We were going to use an online conveyancing company for our house as it was cheaper. Im so glad we didnt as our sale ended up complicated. Justin Ginger was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was worth every penny. Friendly, helpful and approachable. He really made the differnce in making a stressful situation a lot easier. I highly recommend him and the team at HC&N.

Tagged solicitor Charlotte Gould
We have been dealing with Charlotte Gould and found her to be extremely efficient and professional in explaining and examining in detail the complex land contract we were entering into. Due to her experience in this area she picked up on things we would never of considered, we couldn't have been more delighted. Her communication response time was excellent, we could not fault her in any way. We will definitely be using Thomson Snell & Passmore again in the future if all their staff are as first class as she is.

MLP did my commercial lease 10 years ago, and have again sorted a new 10 year lease for me. Additionally spotted some mistakes in a separate transfer of interest and sorted those out too.
