@ajlanes One of life’s enduring mysteries is why everyone involved in house purchase or rental seems to be utterly incompetent. Is there a hidden chain of agents and property that only the true insiders have access to, where all the competent ones go? Or do they all drift off to better jobs, or get the competence beaten out of them when they stay on? #hellish

They’re an admin assistant. I don’t think they’re legally trained. They just either think, or have been told, that being endlessly verbose makes them look “professional” instead of like a space alien that taught itself English from garbled police radio transmissions.

me, an American, searching for a definition of "conveyancing solicitor" that doesn't just say "a solicitor well specializes in conveyancing". I finally found one, but I was facepalming hard for a minute. I already knew that solicitors are what we call attorneys or lawyers, so I was really trying to determine what conveyance meant here. I never would have guessed residential property/real estate law.
