At what point will exchange of contracts occur in sale conveyancing in Brynmill and do I need to attend the lawyers office?
Where you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Brynmill you are welcome to come in to sign documents. However, the law practices we work with provide a countrywide conveyancing service and give as equally diligent and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The signing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. A signed contract is just a prerequisite for the conveyancer to exchange contracts at the suitable time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Brynmill)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

As far as conveyancing in Brynmill registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry have to notify any 3rd parties. Currently roughly 80% of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Registration takes place once the new owner is living at the property therefore post completion formalities is not usually top priority but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor should contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
