A conveyancer is the person — usually a lawyer, or in some countries a specially trained professional — whose job is to move a house or a piece of land from one owner to the next, on paper. They check that the seller really owns it, write the legal papers, and make sure the money and the keys change hands in the right order. In Britain, Australia, and similar places, people often hire a conveyancer when they buy a home. You may hear it less in American talk, where people more often say a real-estate lawyer. Though actually, the word can look like “someone who conveys a message,” and that is not what it means here. It is about property changing hands, not about carrying news. It is a quiet, professional word you meet on office signs and in house-buying guides.
