As we usher in the New Year, many people take this opportunity to make important changes in their lives, such as resolving to exercise more, making diet changes, drinking less alcohol, or even deciding to move house. If you have made the decision to move, you will likely start considering who to entrust with handling the property conveyancing process.
Given the widespread use of the internet in our daily lives, from managing our finances to ordering food, it may seem natural to turn to one of the numerous online conveyancing companies that have emerged in recent years for assistance with property transactions.
While these firms may offer lower prices than traditional local solicitors, it is important to consider whether they can provide the level of personalization and reliability that you need for such a significant financial transaction as the sale or purchase of your home. Your home is likely your most valuable asset and the process of buying or selling it can be complex and confusing. To ensure that you have peace of mind and that the conveyancing process is handled smoothly, it is crucial to work with someone you trust and who can guide you through the process. If you need help with this process, contact CP Law Solicitors.
That said, here are some expert tips to keep in mind when hiring a conveyancer:
You Get What You Pay For
While online conveyancers may offer lower fees upfront, they may use inexperienced or unqualified staff to handle the work and provide a non-personalized service. As a result, they may have a high volume of cases and may add additional fees later on. On the other hand, local solicitors will provide a comprehensive fee quote at the start and generally stick to it, even if the process takes longer than expected. This can give you more confidence in budgeting for the cost of your move.
Experience Matters
As mentioned above, online conveyancing firms may offer lower fees by using inexperienced and unqualified staff. While the conveyancing process may seem simple, it can actually be quite complex and numerous issues may come to light. In these cases, you will want an experienced professional who can handle these situations efficiently and effectively.
Personalised Service
It is important to have a personalized service that meets your specific needs. That’s because the process of buying a house, especially for first-time buyers, can be overwhelming. While some questions can be addressed over the phone or by email, it is often easier to discuss them in person. Working with a local solicitor can provide the confidence and reassurance you need during the property selling or buying process, as they are available to address any questions or concerns you may have.
Your Needs Come First
Unlike many online competitors, our company does not have to pay referral fees to third parties, which means we do not have to pass on those costs to our clients or prioritize the demands of referral companies over your needs.
Comprehensive Services
One of the benefits of working with us, unlike other firms is that we offer a comprehensive service that goes beyond residential property conveyancing. We understand that clients may need additional guidance on matters such as the consequences of joint ownership or transactions that involve commercial property. Our team is equipped to provide these services and ensure that all aspects of your property transaction are taken care of.
