In the complex and fast-paced world of conveyancing, it is often the post-completion process that receives the least attention yet carries some of the greatest risks. Once completion has taken place, the spotlight tends to move on, leaving administrative teams to manage the critical task of registration with HM Land Registry, file closure and archiving. Errors at this stage can have far-reaching consequences: delayed registrations, indemnity claims, regulatory breaches, and, most concerning of all, reputational damage.

At PCC, we believe it is time to shine a light on the vital role of post-completion work. We do not just tick boxes; we reduce risk, enhance compliance and highlight areas for training needs.

More Than a Checklist: A Solicitor-Led Audit Process

Unlike many file review providers who operate on a checklist-style approach, PCC offers a solicitor-led, fully integrated file audit service designed specifically for conveyancing practices, by conveyancers.

Our reviews go far beyond compliance tick boxes. Each file is reviewed holistically by a qualified property solicitor with in-depth expertise in post-completion requirements. We analyse the full lifecycle of the transaction, from instruction to registration, identifying procedural issues, registration risks, and operational inefficiencies.

The result? Fewer requisitions, reduced exposure to negligence claims, and a smoother audit trail for regulatory inspections and lender panel compliance.

The best part? PCC work to your timeframes and your requirements. No fuss, no job too large or too small.

PCC Understands the Pressure Your Teams Face

Post-completion teams are often stretched thin; handling tight deadlines, HM Land Registry requirements, SDLT issues, and ever-growing expectations from clients. However, they rarely receive the recognition or resourcing they deserve. That is where PCC can help.

PCC acts as an extension of your firm, supporting your team with expert audits and file reviews. Furthermore, if required, PCC can offer a fully outsourced post-completion service.
