FAQs - Conveyancing Solicitors Birmingham

Answers to the questions we are asked most often about conveyancing in Birmingham and how the process works.

How long does conveyancing take in Birmingham?

Freehold transactions typically take 8 to 12 weeks, while leasehold matters often take longer because of management packs and additional enquiries. Remortgages can often complete in 2 to 6 weeks. We will always give you a realistic timescale at the outset.

How much do conveyancing solicitors charge in Birmingham?

Costs depend on the type of transaction, the property value and whether the matter is freehold or leasehold. We provide clear fee information and explain any disbursements so you know what is included.

Do I need to visit your Birmingham office in person?

Not necessarily. Many conveyancing matters can be handled by phone, email and signed documents. If you would prefer to speak to someone in person, our Birmingham office is at 111 New Street, B2 4EU.

What is the difference between freehold and leasehold?

Freehold usually means you own the property and the land it stands on. Leasehold means you own the property for a set period under a lease, but not the land itself. Leasehold transactions often involve extra checks and documents.

What searches do you carry out during conveyancing?

This usually includes local authority, drainage and water, and environmental searches. Depending on the property and location, other searches may also be needed.

Can you act for my mortgage lender?

This depends on the lender and the circumstances of the transaction. We can confirm this with you at the start of the matter and let you know if there are any additional requirements.

What can slow down conveyancing?

Common causes of delay include leasehold management packs, missing paperwork, slow responses from other parties, lender requirements and complications in the chain.

Do you help first-time buyers?

Yes. We can guide first-time buyers through the process from offer to completion and explain each stage clearly.

What happens at exchange and completion?

Exchange is the stage where the transaction becomes legally binding. Completion is the day the purchase money is transferred and the keys are released.

Do I pay Stamp Duty?

This depends on the purchase price, your circumstances and the current rules. We can explain whether Stamp Duty Land Tax is likely to apply to your transaction.

What documents do I need to provide?

This usually includes proof of identity, proof of address and information about the source of funds. If you are selling, you may also need to complete property information forms.

When should I instruct a conveyancing solicitor?

Ideally as soon as your offer is accepted or as soon as you decide to put your property on the market. Early instruction can help avoid delays later.
