Buying a home isn’t one process. It’s a dozen functions stitched together.

We welcome the government’s homebuying reforms, with our eyes on the bigger prize

Buying a home isn’t one process. It’s a dozen functions stitched together, and every one of them carries delay, cost and risk. You can slice the problem plenty of ways, but the efficiency has to come across all of them. Fix one function on its own and the rest just shrug.

A single house move touches all of these, and more:

• The estate agent lists the home and holds the chain together.
• The mortgage broker finds and arranges the finance.
• The lender, where there is one, puts up the money, and the solicitors act for them as well as for you.
• The surveyor checks the building is sound and fairly priced.
• The local council answers the searches on planning, roads and drainage.
• The management agent confirms the leasehold costs and obligations.
• The conveyancer does the legal work that makes the transaction binding, safe and final.

The reforms are a tailwind

The government’s reforms reach across a lot of these at once, and that’s good. A single trusted digital identity, upfront information on every listing, a code of practice. All of it helps. For us it’s tailwind.

But it’s almost a side effect of the bigger shift, and not the thing we spend our days thinking about. Because here’s what actually decides the pace.

The heaviest link is the legal one

The heaviest link in the chain is the legal one, and most of it still runs the way it did decades ago. Bring every other function into 2026 and leave conveyancing where it is, and not much really changes.

That’s the part we’re built for. Our focus is to scale the legal reasoning and decisioning so it happens accurately, at instantaneous speed. Get that right, and everything else in the chain is suddenly easy to amplify. Timeliness and accuracy are not in tension in our model. Conveyd is designed so that both are the default.

The faster and cleaner the market around us becomes, the faster we go. The prize is a world where the legal part of moving home stops being the thing everyone waits on.
