How to be a good conveyancer

Conveyancers are required to have a vast knowledge on land law, land division, property development and management, business analysis, contracts, taxation and insurance among other skills since they specialize in property matters. Unlike the past where finding a conveyance expert was considered difficult it is now simplified to finding the right fit for your needs.

Most of the time it is similar to finding a real estate agent to find you a home or sell it for you. The conveyancer should also go through the same vetting process to ensure a successful sale for you.

Good reviews

This is the oldest way of finding a trusted professional in any field. Most people ask their family and friends for referrals when looking for a conveyancer. The better the reviews the better your rating will be. This ultimately means more clients will want to enlist your services. The prices also determine the outcome as clients are going for cheap conveyancing solicitors in London. The rates should be considerate.

Licensing

Having a valid license means that under the law, you are allowed to practice as a conveyancer in a particular area. Evidence of documentation should be displayed to give you the legal right to act on behalf of your client in the purchase or sale of your property.

The right fit for the sale

Most of the conveyancers are solicitors but there are also trained conveyancers. You could be sub-dividing land, selling your house or looking to buy a business establishment. The clients want to know which area the conveyancer specializes in for better results. Versatility in multiple fields is an added advantage as you know how things work.

Effective communication

Communication between the client and the conveyancer is crucial for any successful transaction. They conveyancer represents you in full as the client and hence speaks on your behalf in all matters pertaining the sale or purchase of a property. The level of communication enhances the decision making process and makes it timely. Indecisiveness caused by poor communication could even scare of potential buyers or the vendor. Make sure you explain to the client what you expect to ensure both of you are on the same page.

Questions to expect from clients

Which properties do you specialize in?

• Which will be your mode of communication?
• Are there added costs for the contract? And the settlement?
• Are there any hidden costs I should know about?
• How long should the sale/purchase take? A time frame would be good for planning purposes

There may be more questions asked by the client and at this stage it is right to answer and clear their doubts. Once you have addressed all of the concerns of your clients, you can invite them to sign a contract with you. A contract is a binding agreement that allows you to make decisions on behalf of your client
