What is Conveyancing and Why Does it Matter When You’re Selling?
Conveyancing is the legal process that finalizes the sale of your property – from accepting an offer to handing over the keys. While it might seem like a straightforward transaction, conveyancing involves a number of critical steps, legal documents, and negotiations that can significantly impact the outcome of your sale.
