Residential Property Conveyancing

Are you looking to buy, sell or remortgage a property? During this process, you will probably have heard the term ‘conveyancing’ mentioned a few times. What does it mean, and how does it work? We’re here to help.

Conveyancing refers to the legal process that you will need to go through to formally complete the property transaction you have agreed to enter, the components of which will vary depending on what it is what you want to achieve.

Our lawyers can help with the sale or purchase of private homes, holiday lets, buy-to-let investments, residential property portfolios and the homes of people who have gone into long-term care or have passed away. Find out what else our professional experts can help with here.

Residential Property Remortgage

You might choose to remortgage your home or a buy-to-let investment property to switch from one mortgage product to another (e.g. from variable rate to fixed rate), to move from your current lender to a new provider, or even to access some of the value you have built up in your property via an equity release to fund home improvements or other necessities.

Our residential remortgage lawyers are all qualified professionals who handle the remortgage of family homes and holiday rentals to buy-to-let properties and large, privately owned residential investment portfolios. We offer a fast and efficient service for a fixed cost that covers your legal fees and disbursement costs (associated legal expenses).

Transfer of Equity

If you want to transfer a property out of your name and into the name of someone else, then there are two ways you can do this: A conventional sale or a transfer of equity.

Our experienced transfer of equity lawyers are more than capable of assisting a variety of clients who have decided that they want to change the ownership arrangements in respect of a property, either by taking a name off or by adding a name on, and whether it be via a spouse to spouse transfer for tax purposes, a transfer from parents to children to facilitate a planned inheritance or simply a wish between co-owners to transfer full ownership to just one of them, either by way of gift or in return for some form of consideration.

Buying a New Build Home

Buying a newly built home has many advantages, such as moving into a freshly clean, decorated property with new appliances. Another advantage of purchasing a new build is having the peace of mind that should anything go wrong with the property, you will have the benefit of a new build guarantee, which will usually last for ten years.

Our residential conveyancing specialists are qualified and experienced lawyers who have the skills and expertise needed to ensure that your house purchase proceeds quickly with minimal complications. We take the hassle out of moving home by doing as much legal work for you as we can, while ensuring that you are fully informed about what is happening through regular and detailed updates.

Unregistered Property

An unregistered property has not been registered with the Land Registry. The property will still be owned, but the property details will only be documented in the Title Deeds. When buying or selling an unregistered property, difficulties may occur when finding or proving who the legal owners are, as there is no central record of the ownership to search for in the Land Registry.

If you wanted to sell an unregistered property, you would need to produce the physical title deeds. You would then give the deeds to the buyer’s conveyancer following the sale, who would have the option to apply for the property to be registered. You would also have to go through your conveyancer to provide evidence of title to the buyer by presenting physical ownership documentation from at least 15 years previous up until the present day.

Our conveyancing experts are here to guide you through this journey and tackle the difficulties that may arise when pursuing this transaction process.

Auction Property

There are many advantages to buying a property at auction, such as it being a speedier purchase process or getting a great deal on price. Another plus is being sure that once the hammer has fallen, the property will be yours – subject to you being able to pay a 10% deposit on the day the auction takes place and the balance of the agreed price within another 28 days.

With Step Legal, we understand the process involved and can help you with each step to ensure you bid with confidence. We handle transactions of all sizes and will assist you whether the property you are bidding for will take place in a few days, weeks or months.

Buy to Let Property

Buying a newly built home has many advantages, such as moving into a freshly clean, decorated property with new appliances. Another advantage of purchasing a new build is having the peace of mind that should anything go wrong with the property, you will have the benefit of a new build guarantee, which will usually last for ten years.
