The Residential Conveyancing Process Explained

While every transaction is slightly different, the residential conveyancing process in Scotland typically involves several key stages.

  1. Offer and Negotiation
    Your solicitor prepares and submits the formal offer for the property.
  1. Missives
    The solicitors exchange a series of formal letters negotiating the terms of the purchase or sale.
  1. Title Searches and Checks
    Your solicitor investigates the title and ensures there are no legal issues affecting the property.
  1. Conclusion of Missives
    Once both parties agree the terms, the contract becomes legally binding.
  1. Settlement and Completion
    On the agreed completion date, funds are transferred and ownership of the property changes hands.


Our residential conveyancing solicitors manage each stage carefully to ensure the process progresses smoothly.
