Solicitor Property Enquiries also known as Conveyancing Property Enquiries are an essential part of the property buying and selling process. They serve to facilitate the exchange of information between the buyer's and seller's solicitors/conveyancers. These enquiries help ensure both parties have accurate and comprehensive information about the property being bought or sold.





The process involves the completion of standard questionnaires (Property Information form and Fixtures and fittings form). The buyer's solicitor/conveyancer review the information provided in these forms and may raise additional inquiries based on the responses. The seller's solicitor/conveyancer is obligated to provide accurate and complete information to the best of their knowledge.


Enquiries are crucial because they help both parties understand the property's condition, any potential legal issues, and what is included in the sale. They can also be used as a basis for negotiation or to request further information or investigations if necessary. The amount of enquiries will determine how long the conveyancing process takes.

It's important to note that enquiries are a standard part of the buying and selling process, they do not replace the need for a comprehensive property survey.
