Does TitleChecker replace the conveyancing solicitor?
While Title Checker can help review a snap shot of the legal title, highlighting issues and offering indemnity solutions, it won't replace a conveyancing solicitor during the transaction.
A conveyancing solicitor will review the Land Registry Title (often called the title deeds) and not only tell you about the defects but also work toward fixing any issues they find. In the case of a mortgage purchase, you'll also need a conveyancing lawyer to act on behalf of your mortgage lender and to receive and send the money to the seller's solicitor.
What is clear though is that if you quickly want some great inside knowledge about the property you are buying then a TitleChecker Search can help.
