Property law licensed conveyancers

Conveyancing or property law is the word that defines the transfer of land or property law from one party to another. Licensed conveyancing in England & Wales is carried out by conveyancing solicitors who are governed by the Law Society and licensed conveyancers by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers. These organisations are there to protect the public and all property conveyancing solicitors and licensed conveyancers must have in place indemnity insurance to protect their clients. The conveyancing law process can be complex and stressful and it makes sense to use a qualified conveyancer to take care of your property law transaction. If you have a mortgage on the property all mortgage lenders will insist that you use a qualified conveyancer who is on their conveyancing panel.

How to choose a good property law licensed conveyancer

CMS have been providing property law and legal conveyancing services since 1995. Our Directors have between them almost 60 years of experience of working in the conveyancing and property law industry and we know what we are looking for in a good conveyancing firm. We insist that our conveyancing solicitors are registered with the Law Society or the CLC. Every conveyancing lawyers firm must have at least two partners and be on the panel of all major mortgage lenders. We insist that a dedicated and named conveyancer is appointed to take care of CMS clients and every conveyancer must be qualified to carry out conveyancing services.

The definition of a disbursement is a payment that has to be made to a third party such as The Land Registry for online or direct registration of property title in England or the UK generally.

When you see the word disbursement on a conveyancing estimate or quote you would assume therefore that the items listed under the disbursements section would be payments that the solicitor will be making on your behalf to third parties. This is not always the case and items are often wrongly listed in the disbursements section.

Some conveyancing firms charge an unrealistically low conveyancing fee hoping that the consumer will just compare that fee to other companies’ fees and accept is on face value as a lower quote. However, it is very important to check the TOTAL amount quoted by the conveyancing firm as some companies are in the habit of including part of their conveyancing fees in the disbursements section.

Listed below are genuine disbursements with an explanation of what the payment is for. We have also listed some items that you may find in the disbursements section of some firms that are not genuine disbursements but are part of that firm’s charges:

Genuine property law disbursements

Stamp duty If you are buying or transferring a property and it is liable for stamp duty the amount will be shown as a disbursement. Stamp duty is a government tax levied when a property is sold or transferred. This tax is payable by the buyer of the property or share in the property. Some properties are exempt from stamp duty because of where they are situated. For current stamp duty rates and details of stamp duty exempt areas visit www.inlandrevenue.gov.uk.

H M Land Registry fees When you buy a property, take out a new mortgage or transfer a share in a property the transaction must be registered at the Land Registry. The Land Registry charge a fee for registering the transfer and this is on a sliding scale depending upon the price of the property. To check the current Land Registry fees visit www.landregisteronline.gov.uk.

Official Copy Entries and Filed Plan When you sell or re-mortgage a property your solicitor will apply to the Land Registry for an Official copy of the deeds relating to your property and an Official Copy of the filed plan relating to your property. If the Official copy refers to a document that is not set out in the Official copies then your solicitor will also have to obtain an Official copy of that document. Sometimes when you are buying your solicitor will obtain an Official copy of the filed plan to use for search purposes.

Searches When you buy a property or take out a new mortgage you will have to have certain legal searches carried out against the property. There are many types of conveyancing search but the most typical are:
