Practical guide
Choosing a Property Solicitor or Conveyancer
Not all solicitors understand property investment. A specialist saves time and money — especially on HMOs, auctions, and Ltd company purchases.
When You Need a Specialist
- •Buying through a limited company (SPV)
- •Auction purchases (28-day completion)
- •HMO conversions and title splits
- •Lease options and R2SA agreements
- •Commercial to residential conversions
Questions to Ask
- •"Do you regularly act for property investors?"
- •"Can you handle auction timelines?"
- •"Are you on lender panels for BTL mortgages?"
- •"What are the full costs including disbursements?"
