Conveyancing FAQs?

Of course. We recommend that you provide us with the auction pack (including title deeds, conditions of sale and searches etc) before attending the auction. The sooner we can review the legal pack the sooner we can advise you and you can advise you of any potential issues before you decide to buy at auction.

The Conveyancing world has expanded to include qualified and non-qualified roles. Conveyancers can be qualified solicitors, chartered legal executives, licensed conveyancers, paralegals, and conveyancing/ property executives.

Picking a local conveyancing firm means you can benefit from their local knowledge and experience. At Hatch Brenner, we work with local estate agents, mortgage advisors and local authorities.

Our Norwich-based office is also convenient. We’re happy to meet you face-to-face to talk about your sale or purchase or other conveyancing matter at any time and you won’t have to go far to drop off any documents or forms.

There is no set amount of time but on average a transaction can take any between 8-12 weeks but this does depend on the type of transaction the property and the parties involved.

When you start the sale or buying process, we get as much paperwork completed in advance as possible. This will help to minimise any enquiries made by the other party’s solicitors and will save time later in the process.

Whether you are buying or selling a property, we will submit documents at the appropriate time to make sure there aren’t delays at your end of the process.

Our conveyancing team is a small, tight-knit unit. This allows us to give a personal service and you will have a dedicated conveyancer and support staff member to liaise with throughout your transaction.

Having a single point of contact means that you will be able to speak directly to someone for updates. They will also know exactly where you are in the process.

We liaise regularly with our clients as well as the other estate agents and solicitors involved to ensure everyone is kept up to date. We will also highlight potential issues or problems as soon as they arise.

We work closely with a small number of clients. This sets us apart from larger, national firms and means we care about seeing your property transfer through to completion.

While we will do everything we can to ensure your property sale runs smoothly, there can be problems along the way.

These may occur when a buyer and seller can’t agree on the terms of the sale, missing documents or even problems with the property.

Our expert conveyancing team will provide advice and support throughout the process, so you find a solution quickly and painlessly.

The price of conveyancing is based on a variety of factors. We will provide you with an upfront quote.

In line with the Solicitors Regulation Authority transparency guidelines, you can find more information on our costs and timescales on our pricing page.

Many of our clients are repeat customers who come back to us because of the quality of our service. We are also recommended to clients’ family and friends, accompanied by positive feedback.

We do not pay large fees to estate agents for people to recommend us, and this means we do not pass additional costs on to our clients.

As members of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS), we have to meet the high standards laid down by the Law Society. We are also regulated and insured by the Solicitors Regulation Authority

If you want to find out more about our services or meet the team in person, please feel free to drop into our office on Theatre Street, Norwich. No appointment is necessary.

We’re also happy to answer any of your questions by phone – just call us on 01603 660 811 – or you can find more information on our property pages.
