Whether you're buying your first home, planning a knockdown-rebuild, or selling a long-held property, understanding conveyancing is essential.

We discuss:

• The difference between a conveyancer and a solicitor

• When to hire a conveyancer in the home buying or selling journey

• Common pitfalls in property contracts and Section 32s

• Why conveyancing matters for renovations and knockdown-rebuilds
