Translate a Conveyancing Document Into Plain English
You are buying your first home and a conveyancing letter has arrived full of searches, enquiries and clauses that mean nothing to you. Paste the text and this explains what kind of document it is, where it sits in the process, and what it is actually telling you. Plain English, not regulated legal advice.

**Decode the document**
1. Identify the type of document and its purpose in the conveyancing process such as property searches, enquiries, completion statement, or title report.
2. List every term or clause that a first-time buyer is unlikely to understand, and give a one-sentence plain-English explanation for each.
3. Highlight any action required from the buyer and the deadline if one is stated. If the document gives no deadline, flag this as something to clarify with their solicitor.
**Flag concerns**
4. Note anything in the document that the buyer should ask their solicitor about before proceeding. Phrase these as questions rather than legal opinions.
