Commercial conveyancing is the legal process for transferring ownership or granting a lease of commercial property, such as offices, shops, or industrial units, from one party to another. Unlike residential conveyancing, it often involves more complex due diligence, detailed contract negotiation, and the registration of property interests at the Land Registry. The process can take several months to complete and requires a solicitor who understands the unique demands of the commercial property market.
Dealing with commercial conveyancing can feel daunting. At Hollam Solicitors, we have the expertise to guide you through every step, ensuring your transaction or lease is legally valid, compliant, and aligned with your business goals. We handle all necessary checks and regulatory requirements, including Stamp Duty Land Tax, Land Registry filings, and Companies House obligations, so you can proceed with confidence.
If you would like to talk to us about your commercial conveyancing matters, please contact us.
The cost of commercial conveyancing varies depending on the complexity of the transaction, the property’s value, and whether it involves a lease or freehold purchase. We offer clear, upfront pricing and will provide a tailored quote once we understand the details of your matter. Transparency is key, and we ensure you are kept informed of costs throughout the process.
These are just some of the matters we routinely assist with. Each commercial transaction is unique, and the advice you receive must be tailored to your circumstances and long-term business objectives. Typical scenarios include:
The sale or purchase of a commercial property such as offices, retail premises, or industrial units
Granting or taking a commercial lease
Negotiating lease renewals or extensions
Transferring property between group companies as part of a corporate restructure
Acquiring land for development projects
Carrying out due diligence on a property to identify any restrictions, covenants, or planning issues
Ensuring all mandatory post-completion steps (including Stamp Duty Land Tax returns and Land Registry registration) are completed correctly and on time
Instructing a solicitor who is not a commercial conveyancing specialist could be detrimental to the progress of your transaction. Oversights in due diligence, incorrect drafting of lease terms, or failure to meet post-completion deadlines can have serious consequences for your business. With Hollam Solicitors, you benefit from:
Specialist advice backed by over 20 years’ legal experience
A thorough, detail-oriented approach to every transaction
Clear communication at every stage of the process
Practical, business-focused solutions tailored to your goals
