A Conveyancing supplier must be instructed to carry out the legal work on your behalf. For a Sale or Purchase, your supplier is responsible for safeguarding both yours and the lender\u2019s best interests at all times during the process. They will liaise with the Conveyancer representing the other side to ensure they get answers to all questions on your behalf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong>Your Conveyancing Quotation Explained<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should be aware that there is no set standard for the information that should be contained in a Conveyancing quotation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>However, here are some of the frequently used terms that you may come across:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Legal\/Solicitors Fee<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fee that your Solicitor or Licensed Conveyancer will charge for undertaking the legal work involved in buying, selling or remortgaging your property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Telegraphic Transfer Fee<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An electronic means of transferring funds.

It also checks signature verification, identity check and will include a sanctions check as part of the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>No Completion, No Fee<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a guarantee that means if your transaction doesn\u2019t complete for any reason, you will not be charged for your Conveyancer\u2019s time.
