The past year has been a busy time for conveyancers due to a growing UK housing market, caused in part by the extended SDLT holiday, the gradual easing of social distancing and the government-backed 5% deposit scheme. To cope with this process heavy, fixed fee work, technology has become the lifeblood of many conveyancing firms, helping them to meet customer demand and generate efficiencies and increased profits.
