Moving house is one of the most stressful events anyone goes through and dealing with estate agents, property lawyers and conveyancing can seem like a bamboozling process with a lot of legal lingo bandied about.
To try and help with this, we at the Council for Licensed Conveyancers (CLC) have put together a list of the most common terms you’re likely to come across, with a brief explanation.
It is important to remember that this is your property purchase and it’s your conveyancer’s job to help you understand what you are being told, that you are going to be able to do what you want in your new home and what you are signing. If you’re not sure, don’t be shy to ask.
