The Changing Face of Conveyancing in 2025: What It Means for You
If you are thinking about buying or selling a home in 2025, you may have heard that the property market has changed a lot over the past year. A new report from Access Legal, The State of the UK Conveyancing Market 2025, gives us a clear picture of what is happening — and what it means for people moving home.
At MJP Conveyancing, we’ve taken a close look at these findings, and we are proud to say that our approach already reflects what buyers and sellers now want and need. In fact, many of our clients say in their reviews that our service is faster, clearer and less stressful than they expected.
How the Market Has Changed
Over the past year, the property market has started to settle after several years of big swings. There was a rise in completed transactions in 2024, partly because many buyers rushed to complete before changes to Stamp Duty. But underneath that, growth has been steady rather than spectacular.
Another important change is that there are fewer conveyancing firms overall. The firms that remain are often larger, with more resources to handle transactions across the country. Smaller firms are finding it harder to compete.
Rules and regulations have also tightened. Conveyancers are now expected to carry out even stronger checks to protect clients from fraud and money laundering. At the same time, lenders are keeping a close eye on how quickly firms handle key tasks, such as registering ownership with the Land Registry.
Finally, technology has become more central than ever. Clients expect quick updates, online portals where they can track progress, and clear information about costs and timescales.
Opportunities and Challenges
These changes bring both opportunities and challenges for conveyancers.
-
The challenge is that competition is fierce. Firms must work harder to keep costs under control while meeting stricter compliance rules. Clients are also expecting a faster, more transparent service.
-
The opportunity is that firms that embrace technology, focus on communication, and provide clear pricing can stand out from the crowd. Buyers and sellers are increasingly choosing conveyancers who make the process easier, quicker, and more reliable.
How MJP Conveyancing Stands Out
At MJP Conveyancing, we have always believed that moving home should be as straightforward and stress-free as possible. The way we work already reflects the changes highlighted in the Access Legal report:
-
Digital service: Our online system gives you 24/7 access to your case, so you can see exactly what is happening without having to chase us for updates.
-
Clear pricing: We provide transparent fees up front, so you know exactly what you are paying with no hidden extras.
-
Efficient processes: We use technology to cut down on delays and keep your transaction moving.
-
Strong communication: We pride ourselves on being responsive and keeping you informed at every step.
-
Nationwide reach: Although we are based in Norwich, we help clients across England and Wales. We also provide tailored support for first-time buyers, who often need extra guidance.
And importantly — our clients agree. In hundreds of reviews, people highlight our speed, professionalism, and the ease of using our online portal. Many first-time buyers mention how supported they felt throughout the process, while seasoned movers praise the transparency of our pricing and the reassurance of regular updates.
Looking Ahead
The property market in 2025 is expected to remain steady, but not without challenges. What is clear is that clients will continue to demand more convenience, more transparency, and more security from their conveyancers.
At MJP Conveyancing, we are well prepared for this future. By combining modern technology with personal service — and with the backing of consistently strong client reviews — we are able to deliver exactly what buyers and sellers are looking for: a reliable, efficient, and transparent conveyancing experience.
So if you are planning to move this year, you can be confident that with MJP Conveyancing, you are in safe hands.
