This country is known for the length of time it can take to progress a sale. However, one of the greatest revolutions in the property sector is the way in which the legal process is evolving, thanks to technology.
For example, we offer an on-line conveyancing service that not only speeds up communication between all parties, but also saves cost and reduces the chances of your sale falling through (about 37% of sales in England currently do not proceed to exchange).
In the past, the moving process would involve several daunting trips to an imposing solicitor’s office, where you would be baffled with legal-speak and paperwork. Trying to then get hold of the solicitor to find out how your sale was progressing was seldom easy, and you felt guilty for interrupting their “important” work!
The legal firms who provide our on-line conveyancing service are up-beat, modern and highly approachable, although most of the communication no longer happens face to face (unless you prefer it that way). Instant email communication is now the norm, and keeps everybody in the loop with all developments, so nobody has to wonder what’s happening. You can even get a quote and appoint your solicitor on-line.
Better still, buyers and sellers can now go on-line 24 hours a day and check the progress of their sale as it is updated in real time. How refreshing! And, because there are fewer meetings or protracted letter-writing marathons, how much cheaper as well.
The internet age might have depersonalised many aspects of our lives. However, when so much hangs on the speed and efficiency of the legal process, it’s good to know that on-line conveyancing is one use of technology that has certainly been harnessed for the better.
