Property law in Scotland, handled properly

Scottish conveyancing has its own rules and its own pitfalls – missives, home reports, LBTT, standard securities. Fortunately, our conveyancing solicitors deal with them every day, acting for buyers and sellers across Glasgow and Greater Glasgow.

In other words, you get a named solicitor who handles your transaction personally, answers your calls, and tells you what is actually happening. As a result, you are never just a case number in a call centre queue.

How it works

Buying a home in Scotland, step by step

Offer and negotiation

First, we note your interest, advise on the home report, and submit your offer. If it goes to a closing date, we also help you pitch it right.

Missives and checks

Next, we negotiate the contract, examine the title, run searches, and deal with your lender’s requirements.

Settlement and keys

Finally, funds move, the title transfers, and we deal with LBTT and registration. Then you collect the keys.

Common questions

Conveyancing FAQs

A straightforward purchase typically takes 6 to 8 weeks from an accepted offer to settlement, though it can be quicker or slower depending on the chain, the lender and the title. Either way, we will give you a realistic timescale at the start and update you if anything changes.

Fees depend on the property price and the complexity of the transaction. However, we agree our fee with you upfront before you instruct us, alongside a clear breakdown of outlays such as searches, registration dues and LBTT. There are no hidden extras at settlement.

In practice, yes. In Scotland only a solicitor can submit a formal offer and conclude missives, and your mortgage lender will require a solicitor to act in the transaction. Getting a solicitor involved before you offer also protects you from committing to a problem property.

Missives are the formal letters exchanged between the buyer’s and seller’s solicitors that together form the contract of sale. Once missives are concluded, both parties are legally bound. Because of that, we negotiate the terms to protect your position before anything becomes binding.

Land and Buildings Transaction Tax is Scotland’s equivalent of stamp duty. Whether you pay, and how much, depends on the purchase price and your circumstances, including first-time buyer relief and the additional dwelling supplement. In short, we calculate it for you and submit the return as part of the transaction.

Yes, and in fact it usually works better that way. That is because one solicitor coordinating both transactions keeps settlement dates aligned and stops you being caught between two chains that do not talk to each other.
