It is important to have a good solicitor to assist you with the conveyance of your property

With a complicated legal system for many centuries it is not uncommon to see properties with unusual covenants in the title deeds. It is important you have a solicitor who is experienced and able to ensure any legal issues are overcome before you exchange and complete on your purchase.

If you care about what happens to your property after you die, you should make a will. Without one, the State directs who inherits your estate, so your relatives and friends may receive nothing. It is particularly important to make a will if you are not married or are not in a registered civil partnership (a legal arrangement that gives same-sex partners the same status as a married couple). This is because the law does not automatically recognise cohabitants (partners who live together) as having the same rights as husbands, wives and civil partners. As a result, even if you’ve lived together for many years, your cohabitant may be left with nothing if you have not made a will. A will is also vital if you have children or dependants who may not be able to care for themselves. Without a will there could be uncertainty about who will look after or provide for them if you die.
