What is commercial conveyancing?
Commercial conveyancing refers to the legal process involved in the buying, selling, or leasing of commercial properties such as offices, retail units, warehouses, or any other type of property used for business purposes.
This process involves the transfer of legal title of the property from one person or entity to another and is typically more complex than residential conveyancing due to additional considerations like business rates, planning permissions, and commercial leases.
The process typically takes longer to complete because the legal investigations are more extensive and complex.
In both commercial and residential property conveyancing, the process of transferring legal ownership is conducted by either a solicitor or a licensed conveyancer.

The commercial conveyancing process
The commercial conveyancing process usually involves a detailed due diligence process including the carrying out of property searches, title checks, and reviewing detailed commercial enquiries.
The negotiation and drafting of contracts and associated documentation follow, tailored to the client’s and the transaction’s specifics. On completion the legal documents are dated and any associated Stamp Duty Land Tax paid.
Commercial conveyancing can be more complex and time-consuming because of the legalities involved, often concerning leases and tenancies.
This means it’s vital that anyone buying or selling commercial property should work with a specialist commercial conveyancing solicitor.
