Our Milton Keynes Conveyancing Services
We offer a full range of residential conveyancing services, including:
Selling a Property
We understand the importance of communicating with everyone involved in the process, of acting quickly to minimise delays and most importantly, in providing a high quality and value for money service.
If you are both buying and selling, we will help coordinate the necessary timescales. To ensure the most efficient sale, we advise that you contact us immediately before placing your property on the market. This allows us to provide you with impartial advice at the earliest possible stage in the transaction and will reduce the risk of problems occurring in the later stages.
Buying a Property
Buying a property (especially if you are purchasing for the first time) can be both exciting and daunting. Our residential property team are here to help guide you through the process and to achieve a successful outcome.
A purchase may involve a chain of transactions which extends beyond your and our immediate control. We will send you regular updates so you are aware of how your transaction is progressing and the reason for any delays.
Remortgages
Remortgages should be quick, efficient, cost-effective and relatively pain-free as you already own the property and all that is happening is you are replacing one mortgage with another. However, this is not always the experience of clients who choose to use the Lender’s solicitor on a “free legal service” basis.
When you use the Lender’s solicitor you lose control of the timescales of the transaction as they work to their requirements and not to yours. Here at Neves, we recognise the importance of speed and efficiency when processing your remortgage transaction. We aim to complete all remortgages within 1 week of receiving the mortgage offer and instructions from the Lender and providing that all of the information is made available to us, to satisfy any conditions which the Lender may have.
Transfer of Equity
A transfer of equity is required where the ownership of the property is to change but at least one of the original owners will remain as an owner. This is different to a sale and purchase of the property where the original owner will have no continued interest in the property.
If you wish to transfer a property, we would advise that you contact the Lender and ascertain their requirements in this regard before proceeding with the transaction. Obtaining the Lender’s consent at the earliest possible opportunity will ensure the fastest possible timescale is achieved.
Land Purchase and Sales
The buying and selling of land is almost identical in process to that of property conveyancing, but land only transactions do present unique challenges so it is vital that you use a professional advisor who is experienced in this area.
Our property team have considerable expertise and will assist you with all manner of land transactions be it the sale of a small piece of land to your neighbours or the acquisition of a large site for development purposes.
As well as the conveyancing aspect of the transaction, we can provide advice in respect of various planning issues.
Understanding the Milton Keynes Property Market
Milton Keynes is one of the UK’s fastest growing cities, known for its modern infrastructure, excellent transport links and strong employment opportunities. With popular areas such as:
- Wolverton

- Old Farm Park
…the property market here can be highly competitive. Whilst it’s not essential, choosing a conveyancer with experience of the Milton Keynes property market can be highly beneficial as local knowledge helps when dealing with planning issues, new developments and leasehold arrangements commonly found in the area.

"Professional, approachable and brilliant service
I had the pleasure of working with Charlene, Jackie, Alima, and Melissa at Neves solicitors in trying to sell my property. I honestly cannot recommend Charlene and the three ladies highly enough. From start to finish, their professionalism, dedication, and sheer attention to detail made what could have been a stressful process completely seamless The sale of the property was complicated and we had two buyers pulling out at the last minute meaning the house was not sold for one year and nine months. It was a very difficult period for me and my family and this experience was financially crippling, but the above mentioned staff at Neves worked with professionalism, empathy, efficiency and great communication. Despite me calling them and pestering them to oblivion they were always professional and were always knowledgeable and happy to help. I would like to commend Jackie McLaughlin for her unwavering calm support and reassurance. We had a few unexpected complications during the transaction — the kind that could easily derail things — but Jackie McLaughlin always handled everything with calm, confidence, and absolute competence. They were always one step ahead, anticipating potential issues before they became problems and explaining everything clearly and patiently along the way. I could not have asked for a better team.
They worked tirelessly to meet tight deadlines, and I genuinely felt like they had our best interests at heart the whole time.
It’s rare to come across someone who is not only exceptional at their job but who also genuinely cares about their clients. Jackie McLaughlin is one of those rare people. Efficient, reliable, and incredibly thorough — with a human touch that made all the difference.
If you’re looking for a conveyancing solicitor who will go the extra mile (and then some), look no further. I am working with these ladies again in the purchase of our next home and will be recommending Neves to friends and family without hesitation.
Thank you again for everything — you made a stressful journey easier to endure. I am so grateful."
