Exchange of contracts is the most critical stage in the conveyancing process as it represents the point at which the parties become legally bound to proceed. This chapter examines pre-exchange matters; the process by which contracts are actually exchanged; and matters that should be attended to immediately after exchange has taken place. It also considers the risk and responsibility for buildings insurance, and the consequences of the buyer occupying the property before completion.

Town and country planning legislation aims to control the development of land and buildings. Section 57(1) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 stipulates that ‘planning permission is required for the carrying out of any development of land’. This chapter first discusses the two main elements of town and country planning: (1) obtaining planning permission for new developments; and (2) the change of use of existing properties. It then explains breaches of planning control and enforcement; building regulations; and typical planning enquiries. A town and country planning decision tree is also presented.

This chapter first examines some of the more commonly encountered elements or clauses in most leases. Essentially, it sets out what one might expect to see in a lease of either residential or commercial property. The discussions then turn to the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook for Solicitors and Licensed Conveyancers England and Wales; defective leases; liability on covenants in leases: enforcement; granting new leases; existing leases; and enfranchisement.

The purchase deed transfers the legal estate in the property from the seller to the buyer. Whereas the contract sets out what the parties have agreed, the purchase deed actually puts those agreed terms into effect. This chapter discusses drafting and approving the deed; forms of purchase deed; the plan in a purchase; execution of purchase deed; and advising the client.

Deducing title is the process by which the seller demonstrates to the buyer that the seller owns the property and can convey it. In a modern conveyancing transaction the parties will deduce and investigate title before contracts are exchanged. This chapter explains the process of deducing title; investigating title; and some special title situations.

This chapter considers what can be done if a conveyancing contract is delayed, disputed or denied. A practitioner must be able to advise a client when a transaction goes wrong and remedies are sought to correct that wrong. The discussions cover late completion; conditions when time is of the essence for a conveyancing contract; consequences of delay; notices to complete; and remedies.
