Buying a home in England and Wales typically means conveyancing work: checking title, agreeing terms, and handling the transfer of ownership when you buy or sell a property. A solicitor drafts and negotiates the contract, conducts searches, arranges mortgage or cash completion, and handles stamp duty land tax, the transfer deed, and registration at HM Land Registry. They also liaise with the seller’s solicitor, lenders, and local authorities, and resolve any title or boundary issues that arise during the transaction.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor coordinates searches, negotiates contract terms, checks for any burdens or rights of way, and ensures completion and registration are properly executed. They work with lenders, handle funds securely, and address any defects uncovered before completion. If problems surface—such as title defects or planning concerns—the solicitor advises on options and next steps, including remedies and risk allocation.
