Property Conveyancing Experts

Whether to purchase or sell your property is one of the most important decisions you'll ever make.  Dylan Green & Associates offer independent guidance and knowledge throughout, whether you are buying a property for the first time or purchasing a property or remortgaging. To guarantee that our clients are guided smoothly through the process, we maintain a constant and effective connection with them. A legal procedure called conveyancing enables the transfer of a property's legal title to a new owner. In other words, the property is given over to another individual, who now owns and controls it.


 Our conveyancing services include:
1. We'll produce a contract for sale and the applicable property's legal title.

2. We will review title paperwork, planning permission, and contracts for sale or lease and explain them.

3. We'll distribute title deeds.

4. We will produce a lease and legal title for the property in question.

5. We'll carry out searches.

6. Documents will be submitted to the Land Registry and Registry of Deeds.

7. We will examine them to see if the client’s interests coincide with the transaction.

8. We'll ask for copies of mortgage offers and obtain them.

9. We will stay in contact with your lender throughout the procedure.

10. The lease terms for the property will be agreed upon.For more information on conveyancing, view our guide on conveyancing in Ireland.
 

Your solicitor will also look after the following:

  • Exchange of contracts.
  • We are raising and negotiating any title queries with the seller’s solicitor.
  • We are drafting closing documentation.
  • Title searches.
  • You are giving an undertaking to your bank.
  • I am ordering your loan cheque for closing.
  • We are closing the sale.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

Matters that you, the client, will need to look after include:

  • If you are buying a new home, dealing with the builder on property details and extras, and arranging for a qualified surveyor/architect/engineer to make periodic inspections and the snag list.
  • If you are buying a second-hand home, have a surveyor/architect a structural survey carried out by a qualified surveyor/architect/engineer before signing any contracts.

What is Conveyancing

Conveyancing is the term used to describe property transactions and the transfer of legal ownership of immovable property.

At first glance, conveyancing might seem like tedious or complex jargon. It is the process where a conveyancing solicitor or conveyancer ensures that the buyer receives the title deeds of a property after purchase. Put, conveyancing is the paperwork that must be completed when transferring a property from one owner to another.  But you don’t have to worry about the specifics of this paperwork. Landlord and Tenants

Sale Agreed & Property Survey

Conveyancing Landlord and Tenants Lawyer Cork

 If the property you are purchasing  is secondhand your solicitor should advise you to have completeld structural and planning survey by a qualified architect or engineer. The maxim ‘caveat emptor, i.e. ‘Buyer Beware’, still operates as the law today. Once contracts are signed, the purchaser agrees to take the property as it was at the time of the sale. Therefore, a planning and structural survey are essential if the property you buy is secondhand. 

Objections and Requisitions on Title

Conveyancing Landlord and Tenants Lawyer Cork

These are queries and requests raised in respect of the vendor’s title and other matters relevant to the property being sold.

Land Registry Documents

Land registry documents comprise a property's folio in 3 parts:  part 1 gives details of the property and a map reference, part 2 gives the registered owner and class of title part 3 lists the burdens on the title, e.g. mortgages/charges. A transfer deed transfers ownership of land registry property, but the title only passes when the transfer has been registered in Land Registry. Conveyancing Landlord and Tenants Lawyer Cork Kerry

Vendor’s Solicitor

Purchaser’s Solicitor

 Conveyancing Landlord and Tenants Lawyer Cork  Kerry
The purchaser’s solicitor will need to:  Read the contract and related documentation, check the title, and any special conditions in the contract.

 Advise the purchaser to have a complete structural survey on the property carried out because when buying a second hand property the principle of “caveat emptor” (buyer beware) applies.

 Advise on tax such as stamp duty which will be payable and ascertain whether there are any tax reliefs available.
