The Law Society's Conveyancing Handbook 24th ed

The Law Society’s Conveyancing Handbook presents the latest guidance on good practice in residential conveyancing and is a crucial resource for answering queries arising from day-to-day transactions.

It is revised annually by a team of experts, directed by an editorial board and edited by Frances Silverman.

The 24th edition includes:-

• explanation of obligations arising from the new AML regulations
• a new chapter on conveyancing of shared ownership property
• a new chapter on Annual Tax on Enveloped Dwellings (ATED)
• the new third edition of the Standard Commercial Property Conditions
• The Law Society’s Model Property Report and Consumer Lease Report.

These developments and many more are considered within a chronological account of conveyancing transactions of residential freehold and leasehold property, supported by:

• an introductory section addressing a wide range of preliminary concerns, from advertising to VAT
• procedural checklists for each major stage of the transaction
• comprehensive reference material in the appendix, including all relevant practice notes.
