About this title

Synopsis

A Practical Approach to Conveyancing is a direct and approachable guide through the vagaries of the English conveyancing system. It provides practical solutions to everyday problems ensuring that conveyancers offer a cost-effective and efficient service. Helpful checklists are provided, together with precedent documents, clauses and forms that together make up an invaluable procedural structure for anyone interested in conveyancing. Modern conveyancing practice requires efficiency with cost effectiveness and these two themes pervade the book. Every chapter includes key point summaries for the busy practitioner and suggestions are made where savings of time and effort can be made (without detriment to the client) that may contribute to greater profitability for the conveyancer. A Practical Approach to Property Law is essential reading for solicitors, their support staff, trainee solicitors, licensed conveyancers, legal executives, law students and anyone involved or interested in the conveyancing process. The book has established itself as one of the core texts used by students on the Legal Practice Course. Contents Include: Taking Instructions and Other Initial Matters; The Draft Contract; Pre-contract Searches and Enquiries; Town and Country Planning; Deduction and Investigation of Title; Exchange of Contracts; The Purchase Deed and Mortgage; Pre-completion Procedures and Completion; Post-completion Procedures; Delays and Remedies; Leaseholds; New Properties; Commercial Conveyancing, Business Tenancies and Tenanted Properties.
