What Simplify does

Simplify is the UK's leading independent conveyancing and property services group, formed in March 2019 through the merger of My Home Move and The Simplify Group and headquartered in Leicester. The group comprises seven regulated conveyancing law firms (Advantage Property Lawyers, Cook Taylor Woodhouse, DC Law, Gordon Brown Law, JS Law, Premier Property Lawyers, and My Home Move) plus the Move with Us property services brand, collectively processing more home mover transactions than the next four conveyancing groups combined. It serves three primary customer segments: B2B introducers (1,500+ estate agents, mortgage intermediaries, lenders, and house builders), direct consumers via My Home Move Conveyancing, and specialist clients in probate and shared ownership, with operations across 11 UK locations plus home-based coverage in England and Wales.

The technology backbone is a proprietary platform-plus-modules architecture: eWay provides 24/7 client-facing case management, ieWay gives introducers quoting, instruction, and performance tracking, iPX is an interactive sales tool used by housebuilders for part exchange and assisted sale conversations, and the Property Sales Portal delivers real-time portfolio and forecasting analytics. The group layers Robotic Process Automation for document extraction, AI call listening (credited with a 9%+ conversion uplift since Spring 2024), generative AI explainer videos, ID and AML verification, and Residential Pricing Reports built on the firm's proprietary transaction dataset.

The business model is overwhelmingly transactional and per-matter, with fees collected on each conveyancing instruction plus referral commission paid back to introducer partners. Revenue is generated across conveyancing delivery (consumer and introducer), managed panel services for 300+ partner firms serving lenders and large introducers, housebuilder property services (part exchange, assisted sale, valuations), and probate and estate management. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, though the consumer channel is anchored by a "no move, no fee" guarantee and the company reports conveyancing income uplifts of over 40% and bottom-line additions of up to 47% for its introducer partners.
