Technology and the Relationship Between Conveyancers and Estate Agents

Technology and the Relationship Between Conveyancers and Estate Agents

The world of property transactions has come a long way in the decade, with technology playing a key role in the relationship between conveyancers and estate agents. The use of technology has made the process of buying and selling properties more efficient, secure, and transparent, thereby reducing the time and effort required to complete a transaction. 

​In the past, exchanging information and documents between the two parties was a time-consuming and manual process, but technology has made it much easier. For example, the use of digital platforms has made it simple for conveyancers and estate agents to share information and file documents in real-time, without the need for physical exchange of paperwork or clogging up email accounts. 

Another key benefit of technology is the increased transparency it provides. Several software systems and platforms have been developed to track the progress of a property transaction, from start to finish. This provides both conveyancers and estate agents with a clear view of the process, reducing the risk of errors and delays. Furthermore, these platforms offer secure and encrypted storage of all important documents, reducing the risk of data loss or theft. 

Finally, technology has enabled estate agents and conveyancers to work more efficiently, freeing up their time and allowing them to focus on other important aspects of the transaction. For example, the use of automated systems and software has reduced the time spent on manual tasks such as data entry and document preparation, freeing up more time for the two parties to discuss the finer details of the transaction and ensuring a smooth completion. 


Dezrezlegal made an early commitment to adopting technology into their everyday process and making the most of their link to the Rezi platform. Managing Director of Dezrezlegal, Laura Liddell explains that β€œthe clear advantage of having a referral mechanism and case update functionality built directly into the Rezi product means that our property partners save time by not having to log into different CMS. It guarantees data integrity, via secure systems and not having to manually enter information; and reduces email and phone traffic to those conversations that really make a difference to the progression of a transaction. It also looks impressive to the client to see their estate agent and conveyancer working that closely in their best interest.’’
