E-conveyancing is the transformation of the current paper based conveyancing system into electronic form, using electronic documents, requisitions and signatures. The programme aims to utilise advances in technology by creating a system that reduces the delay and anxiety which can be experienced in the house buying process.
This will be enabled by encouraging open access to chain information and providing a mechanism whereby all payments relating to the transactions in the chain can be paid simultaneously and electronically, with automatic registration on completion.
Land Registry's e-conveyancing consultation exercise sought the views and opinions of those who would be affected by any change to the conveyancing process, including members of the public, conveyancing professionals, lenders and other government departments. The findings of this exercise have given the Task Force a broad idea of what is expected and required of e-conveyancing.
We are now developing how the service will work in practice and are seeking your views on our ongoing series of proposals.
This website allows you to download our discussion documents, and also to provide your responses online, through a variety of methods.
