The services have been announced as property transactions across England continue to take longer than many sellers expect. According to UK government guidance, selling a home takes around five months on average, while the conveyancing stage alone can last between 12 and 20 weeks, depending on factors such as property chains, lender requirements, and how quickly information is shared between parties. This has highlighted the importance of having reliable legal support in place.
Smithfield Partners’ conveyancing services for sellers cover the full legal process involved in transferring ownership. This includes preparing contracts, reviewing title documents, responding to enquiries from the buyer’s solicitor, and coordinating key stages such as exchange of contracts and completion. The firm also works alongside estate agents and other parties involved in the transaction, helping to keep communication consistent and reduce the risk of avoidable delays.
The services are suitable for a wide range of property sales, including freehold and leasehold homes, new builds, and shared ownership properties. The team also has experience handling more complex situations, such as transfers of property, gifts, and trust-related matters, which can require additional legal steps. By taking a structured and proactive approach, the team aims to give sellers a clearer picture of what to expect and what is needed at each stage of the process.
Smithfield Partners maintains professional standards through membership in the Law Society Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS), as well as platforms such as LMS and Lender Exchange, which support coordination with mortgage lenders during transactions. These accreditations reflect established procedures and provide reassurance that transactions are handled in line with recognised industry standards.
