Local conveyancing solicitor
What are the Pros and Cons of using a licensed conveyancing solicitor in Shepperton?
The Pros of using property lawyers nearby

- You may have an existing relationship with your local conveyancing solicitors already
- You can drop your documents and ID off in person (although with scanned ID and online ID checks, there's no need to post your passport either way).
The Cons of using property solicitors nearby
- Not on your mortgage lender's panel - local law firms are often smaller, with fewer principals, which may exclude them from working with certain major high street solicitors.
- Taking time off from work - it isn't always easy to visit your solicitor, and having to see them in person 2 or 3 times during the conveyancing process may add a strain onto your work life, or be unachievable if you live abroad.
- Locally inexperienced - your local solicitor may not specialise in conveyancing and may have more experience in other areas of law.
- Less competition, higher prices - with less competition, your local solicitor's legal fees are most likely to cost more, especially if they have to keep premises in premium high-street real estate.
Affordable Housing Schemes
Several affordable housing schemes in Shepperton help make buying a property more achievable. The work is more complex, and we have specialist conveyancing solicitors to handle the following:
- Shared Ownership Solicitors
- Right to Buy Solicitors - speak to Shepperton Borough Council to find out if you are eligible

Selling a property
Your expert conveyancing solicitor's role when selling a property will include:
- Draft contracts – Your conveyancing solicitor drafts the initial legal contract to be sent to the buyer's solicitor.
- Responding to enquiries – your solicitor responds to any questions the buyer's solicitor may have (this is where you'll find out if you are missing documents, which can cause delays to your sale).
- Investigating issues – your solicitor may need to complete further investigation to try and satisfy them.
- Exchange contracts – once the buyer's solicitor has satisfied their enquiries, contracts are finalised and exchanged
- On the day of completion – your solicitor receives the money for the sale, discharges the mortgage (if required), pays the estate agent, deducts their fee and then sends the net sale proceeds to you.
- Post completion – your solicitor receives the DS1 discharge documents and, when leasehold, settles your liabilities for ground rent and service charges.
Our conveyancing solicitors' cost for selling a property starts from £723 INC VAT.
Buying a home
- Draft contracts – Your solicitor reviews the draft contract sent by the seller's solicitor.
- Raising enquiries – your solicitor will ask the seller's solicitor questions based on the contract, title, and property documents to protect you from any nasty surprises.

- Day of completion – on the day of completion, your solicitor transfers the money for the sale.
- Post completion – following completion, your solicitor makes an application to HM Land Registry to register you as the new owner.

Can you pull out after exchange of contracts?
In simple terms, you can pull out after exchange of contracts, whether you're a buyer or a seller, but the law in England and Wales treats these sides very differently.
As a buyer, you can only exchange if you've transferred your deposit monies into the seller's solicitor's account. This is normally 10% of the property's selling price, although a lower percentage can be agreed with the seller. If you pull out, you stand to lose 10% of the selling price under the law, even if you paid over an agreed deposit of less than 10%. The seller can also sue for losses resulting from the breach of contract.
As a seller, you could be sued for losses resulting from breach of contract. So, from a buyer's perspective, they might sue the seller for items like mortgage costs (product fee, valuation fee, etc.), survey costs and any deposit paid over for removals.
Therefore there are consequences for pulling out after exchange of contracts, however these clearly fall more heavily on the buyer pulling out rather than the seller.
