Based in Roodepoort, our conveyancing team provides hands-on legal guidance at every step of your transaction.
What Is Conveyancing?
Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring ownership of immovable property (like land, houses, or flats) from one person to another. This process must be done by a qualified attorney registered as a conveyancer with the High Court of South Africa.
Without proper conveyancing, property transfers can be delayed, challenged, or even rejected by the Deeds Office.
