Property conveyancing

Legal support that makes your move easier

Navigating the legal side of a property transaction can be complex, but it doesn’t need to be stressful. Whether you’re buying or selling, a trusted conveyancer is essential to handle the legal side of your move as this can speed up completion, prevent delays and ultimately give you peace of mind.

Our conveyancing service: simple, transparent & efficient

At Sears, we partner with a select group of respected local solicitors who share our commitment to clear communication and smooth transactions.

Working alongside our own dedicated sales progression team, your chosen solicitor will guide you from the moment your offer is accepted right through to registering the property with the Land Registry.

Both parties need a conveyancing solicitor, and each pays their own fees to ensure the process is properly managed.

Why choose us for your conveyancing?

We believe great service doesn’t stop at matching you with a solicitor. Here’s how we add value:

  • As your estate agents, we coordinate the process, linking you, your solicitor and other parties (buyer/seller, mortgage lender) so all communication remains clear
  • Our local knowledge means we understand the complexities of Berkshire property. Whether it’s a probate chain, leasehold flat or village family home, we know what to expect
  • We keep you informed: you’ll get regular progress updates tailored to your timeline and situation
  • Our service is built around your move: we work around your needs, not the timetable of the law firm

Get Sale Ready

By preparing key legal documents in advance, many of our sellers are able to reduce the typical completion time, often more than 20 weeks, to as little as 8–10 weeks.

Speak to us today to see how early preparation can keep your move on track.

“I had a fantastic experience with Sears Property and would especially like to thank Jess, Freddie and Keira for all their help in securing the property I’m letting. From start to finish, they were friendly, professional and incredibly helpful. They kept me informed throughout the process, were always quick to respond to any questions, and made everything feel straightforward and stress-free. Their communication and customer service were excellent, and I really appreciated the support they gave me throughout the whole process. A huge thank you to Jess, Freddie and Keira, I would happily recommend Sears Property to anyone looking for a professional, responsive and genuinely helpful letting agent!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a wonderful experience with Sears. Every person we dealt with brought something special to the experience, their own kindness, professionalism, and personal touch. It was clear that everyone genuinely cared and took pride in providing excellent service. I did have a particular favourite, but I won’t mention them as it wouldn’t be fair when each person we met had their own unique qualities that made the whole experience so positive. I will keep them on their toes, wondering who that person might be 😉 A fantastic team, and I would happily recommend Sears to anyone looking for great service and people who truly care. Wishing the entire Sears team only the best”
