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.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

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 solicitors Georgianna Kaya and John Rockliff Smart

I used John Smart at Richard Griffiths for the probate and sorting out of my Aunt’s Will. He was professional and helped us to sort out a tricky situation. I found him professional but not distant, easy to communicate with and available when I needed questions answered. I also used Georgianna and team for the conveyancing of the property I was selling. They were efficient and kept everything moving along nicely. Again it was always possible to get hold of someone to answer questions and report on progress. I highly recommend the firm. Everyone has been a pleasure to deal with.
