Moving house is perhaps the greatest financial decision you will make. Therefore it is essential that the legal aspects of the sale and purchase of your home is carried out with the utmost thoroughness.

We are a member of the Law Society HOME CHARTER SCHEME which gives you the assurance that we guarantee you are given the highest possible standard of service when dealing with our firm.

There are a number of enquiries and searches which must be carried out to make sure that you are obtaining good title to your new property. It is vital that these matters are properly investigated before you complete your purchase. We will ensure such searches and enquiries as we consider appropriate for the particular transaction are conducted prior to completion.

In the case of a sale we will receive the purchase monies and pay off any existing mortgages and forward and balance monies to you with a statement of account.

In the case of a purchase we will arrange to obtain the loan monies from your lender and pay the purchase monies to the vendor's solicitor. We will also arrange to pay other expenses and taxes, such as stamp duty, and registration fees.

At the start of the conveyance we will write to you setting out the likely costs of the transaction, setting out our own fees together with such matters as Stamp Duty and Land Registry Fees. This will enable you to budget properly for the transaction and avoid any last moment unexpected expenses.

We will also keep you regularly updated as to the progress of the transaction through correspondence and telephone attendances.

If you wish to receive an estimate from us for your conveyancing, please send us your full name, address and postcode, together with details of the property you are selling or buying, including the price and the amount of any mortgage being taken out: provided that you have supplied all of these, we can send you a written quotation by return.
