That being said, the firms we work with provide a national conveyancing service and give as equally diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The signing of the property agreement is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line simply enables the solicitor to officially exchange when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Conwy)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
