CONVEYANCING

or selling and buying conveyancing you will need either a lawyer or a conveyancer to complete the legal transactions for you.  We will happily advise you of how to do this and what sort of people you should contact (and expect to pay).

You can do your own conveyancing if you have the time and enthusiasm for it.  There are kits available for buying and selling.  If you are buying you may wish to consider that you are purchasing a very important and valuable asset.  Having legal protection for such transactions may be an important consideration for you.
