A Conveyancing Partner for Estate Agents and Brokers

Managing a transaction means staying in control of something you don’t fully own. Nova works alongside estate agents and mortgage brokers as an extension of your team, so you can see where each case stands without having to ask.

Every partner has a dedicated Business Development Manager and a Relationship Management team. Cases are tracked in our Partner Portal and updated at the key milestones, which means less chasing for you and clearer updates for your clients.

We support thousands of transactions each year across England and Wales through long-term partner networks.

Why Agents and Brokers Partner with Nova

Nova’s customer service excellence has been recognised many times, including as National Conveyancing Firm of the Year at the 2022 & 2024 Modern Law Conveyancing Awards, and as the top law firm in the Sunday Times UK 100 awards of both 2023 and 2024.

“We’ve been impressed with Nova’s performance as our conveyancing partner over the years. They have been very flexible to accommodate our needs, building a high quality customer proposition. Their team is very client-focused and should issues arise they are swift to resolve them and get transactions over the line.”
“The service has been great, and I’ve really appreciated how regularly you keep me updated. It’s very refreshing to receive such frequent updates from conveyancers, especially without me having to call and ask for them. It has helped me stay informed and feel involved and kept in the loop throughout the process.”
“We were really impressed with the communication and and speed offered by Nova conveyancing. The online portal saves a lot of phone calls and our sales have been completed in a fraction of the normal timescales. ”

Expect a partner that works as an extension of your team. That means clear communication at every stage, visibility across each transaction, and named accountability throughout. A good partner helps you manage client expectations, keeps cases moving, and stays consistent when a transaction becomes complex or time-sensitive.

Nova is a relationship-led partner that combines experienced conveyancers, structured processes and integrated systems. We focus on the day-to-day delivery agents and brokers who depend on clear communication, named contacts, visibility across milestones, and a Partner Portal for tracking cases. That gives you more control over the transactions you refer.

We support your transactions from instruction through to completion, with the same structured approach across your pipeline. Partners receive:

  • Dedicated relationship and account management, with clear points of contact who understand your business and your cases
  • Structured communication and regular updates, so you are kept informed at key stages without needing to chase
  • Visibility across every stage of the transaction through the Partner Portal, so you can manage client expectations
  • Support across all transaction types, from straightforward cases to complex or time-sensitive deals
  • A transparent referral model, with competitive referral fees paid on completion, so your team is rewarded when transactions complete successfully

Many delays come from coordination gaps, third parties, and a lack of visibility, rather than the legal work itself. We work on each of these:

  • Structured processes at every stage of the transaction
  • Proactive communication, so issues are raised before they escalate
  • Early preparation, such as our “Sale Ready” approach, to reduce downstream delays
  • Clear ownership and accountability throughout

We cannot remove delays that sit with third parties, but you get earlier warning and a clear view of where a case is held up.

Yes, our Nova Rocket Service is our fast-track option for clients who need to move sooner, with timescales from 7 weeks. You can read more about this service here.

When we are instructed on both sides of a transaction, there is less waiting on the other side’s solicitor, which is one of the most common sources of delay. It does not apply to every case, as it depends on who instructs us on the other side. Your Business Development Manager can explain how it works for your cases.

We keep lender and mortgage offer timelines in view from instruction. Where a case looks likely to run up against an offer expiry, your named contact will tell you early, so you can speak to the lender and your client in good time.

We support agents and brokers with consistent, proactive communication and clear visibility. Clients receive:

  • Regular updates in plain English
  • Continuity through named contacts
  • Transparent progress throughout the transaction

This reduces uncertainty for your client and unnecessary chasing for you, which helps you keep their trust and confidence.

Nova is designed to support more predictable transactions by improving communication, visibility and coordination across the process. Keeping momentum, giving clarity at each stage and managing expectations early all help reduce the risk factors that commonly lead to fall-throughs. We cannot remove every risk, as a chain depends on many parties, but we can make problems visible sooner.

Nova partnerships are built on long-term relationships, with a focus on transparency, consistency and shared outcomes. They typically include:
