Choosing the right conveyancer can be a difficult process. Should you go with the cheapest? Should you go with someone local?

There are lots of advantages and disadvantages to using different conveyancers. For example, a local conveyancer will know the local area very well and be in a better position to advise on certain risks in specific areas of the town. However, a conveyancer that may not be based in your town may be utilising the latest technology, meaning that the conveyancing process is much quicker and fluent.

It’s very common nowadays for a conveyancer to use the latest technology to help speed up the conveyancing process. This is normally through things like:

  • Digital signatures, meaning that you are not waiting for letters to be posted out
  • Using online portals to give clients fast access to legal documents
