Hosts Merryn Somerset Webb and John Stepek continue their mini-series on UK housing, with a focus on conveyance. In this context, that means navigating the paperwork and legal requirements involved in the home-buying process, from making an offer to receiving the keys. They speak with Laura Conduit, a specialist property solicitor and partner at Farrer and Co LLP. The trio discuss how to balance price and value when paying for a conveyancer, common stumbling blocks that can derail a sale and why conveyance on a flat can be more expensive than a house.
