Conveyancing

DIY conveyancing means handling your own property-transfer paperwork — the TR1, TA6, AP1 and ID1 forms that change a Land Registry title — without paying a conveyancer to do the form-filling for you. These free, plain-English guides walk you through each form, box by box, so you can complete your property transfer with confidence. Start with the TR1 transfer of whole, the deed that moves a registered property from one owner to another — used for sales, gifts between family members and transfers of equity. Sellers can prepare the TA6 property information form, the standard disclosure questionnaire every buyer’s solicitor expects. Once the transfer is signed, either side can lodge the change with the AP1 Land Registry application, and if you are not represented by a conveyancer, the ID1 identity verification form proves who you are to HM Land Registry. Every guide is free to read, and each one flags the common snags — restrictions on the title, missing consents, incorrect fees — that cause the Land Registry to requisition or reject applications. And if a property deal turns into a dispute — an unreturned deposit, a failed completion, money owed after a sale — our Money Claim Online complete walkthrough shows you the court route step by step. When you’re ready, Chris can help you draft your own documents to a professional standard, in minutes.
