Who we are
Specialising in conveyancing
We have changed to fit the needs of our clients and made the decision to specialise only in residential conveyancing. We are regulated by the Council for Licensed Conveyancers.
We are based in Nottinghamshire and pride ourselves on serving the local community, regularly dealing with properties in Arnold, Mapperley, West Bridgford and Mansfield.
Our whole team is dedicated to helping you move as quickly and as stress free as possible. We enjoy speaking to our clients — whether you want to communicate by email or would rather have a chat. We pick up the phone and allay any concerns, particularly if you are a first time buyer. No question is too small, and we understand that whilst we live in the world of conveyancing, you do not.

See the full fee breakdownHow it works
Your move, step by step
Every transaction is different, but a straightforward one usually follows the same five stages. If a transaction goes ahead without any major problems it can often complete in around six weeks.
-
Instructions and initial advice
We take your instructions, give you initial advice, open your file and liaise with your estate agent.
-
Contracts, searches and enquiries
We receive and advise on the contract documents, carry out searches, obtain planning and building regulation documentation where needed, and raise enquiries with the other side.
-
Mortgage and finances
We check that your finances are in place, deal with your lender and advise you on the conditions of your mortgage offer.
-
Exchange of contracts
Once you are happy, we agree a completion date and exchange contracts — at which point the transaction becomes binding and your moving date is fixed.
-
Completion
Money changes hands, keys are released through the agents, and we deal with Stamp Duty Land Tax and registration at the Land Registry.
Client reviews
What our clients say
-
I used Alcocks for both the sale and purchase of properties. Absolutely first class service from Lisa and Paula. Kept me informed, replied to emails and phone calls. I would definitely recommend using them. Many thanks again.
-
We were so pleased and impressed with the service from Alcocks — from Jo Llewelyn and Harriet Hawkins. Especially Jo, who really went out of her way to ensure that the purchase of the property in Cornwall went ahead for us, after a few delays with our buyer. Thanks again — Alcocks are most recommended.
-
Made my home buying journey so much easier. I am pleased and impressed with the service from Alcocks; very informative, efficient and happy to answer any little question I may have had. Lovely Jo was amazing at answering her emails and always giving me a prompt reply. Thank you again!
A note on payment fraud
This firm will provide you with our bank details at the start of the transaction on our initial paperwork, on our completion statement, or directly to you by telephone. We will never send you bank account details by email, nor will we accept payment instructions by email.
If you ever receive an email which appears to be from this firm asking you to make a payment to a bank or building society account specified in that email, you must notify us immediately. This firm does not accept liability for any payment you make to an account that has been sent to you by email.
