Welcome to the Max Engel Moving Home Hub: clear, practical guidance for buying, selling, buying your first home or remortgaging.
Buying your first home is an exciting milestone, but understanding the first-time buyer conveyancing process can sometimes feel complicated. From making an offer and arranging your mortgage to property searches, legal enquiries, exchange of contracts and completion, there are several important stages before you finally receive the keys to your new home.
Our experienced first-time buyer conveyancing solicitors in Northampton provide clear, practical legal advice throughout the process of buying your first home. We can help you understand what happens after your offer is accepted, what property searches you may need, how long conveyancing can take and what to expect when you exchange contracts and complete your purchase.
Whether you’re wondering when to instruct a conveyancing solicitor, what searches are needed when buying a house or what happens on completion day, our First-Time Buyer Hub contains useful guides designed to make the process easier to understand.
Explore our first-time buyer conveyancing guides below for practical advice on buying your first property and what to expect at every stage.
