At what point can the exchange of contracts occur in residential conveyancing in Ilfracombe and am I required to attend the solicitors office?
If you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Ilfracombe you are invited in to sign documents. That being said, the law practices we work with provide a nationwide conveyancing service and provide as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The signing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line simply enables the conveyancer to exchange contracts when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Ilfracombe)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes approximately ten days for the mortgage offer to be issued. UBS will issue the offer to you and your conveyancers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Ilfracombe.
