How we can help

We regularly work with first time buyers, people buying their next home, those who are downsizing, and people who are relocating for work.

Whether the process is brand new to you, or you have been through it many times before, we give you as much information as you need to feel comfortable with your purchase.

We submit the offer and proceed to conclude the missives (contract) with the seller’s solicitors. We  raise sensible enquiries, carry out the searches, and handle all aspects of the processing of the mortgage (if applicable), payment of the price and registration of the title in your name.

Equity release, or a lifetime mortgage, is a way to take capital out of your property. For some people, it is a good way to plan for the future.

We can explain the legal intricacies of this process and help you decide whether it is the right path for you. If it is, we will draft the documents you need to rebalance your cash vs equity position.

Executry (or ‘probate’ in England) is the legal process of winding up a person’s estate after they die. Part of that process may be selling the house and land of the deceased. We can help you transfer the title in accordance with the Will or sell any house and land of the deceased.

We offer a notarising service, which is essential when you are buying or selling property overseas. Our notary will authenticate and witness documents from around the world, and make sure your paperwork in legally correct for execution abroad.

When you are remortgaging, we can help you redeem your mortgage and discharge the old security and register the new security, transfer funds and carry out property checks and searches.

When you are selling your home, we help you understand which information you need to provide to the buyer and how to find it.

We prepare the acceptance of the buyer’s offer and work to conclude the missives (contract) with their solicitor, answer all of the buyer’s queries, pay off your mortgage and discharge your security (if applicable)  and deal with the financial transfers. We make sure all of the title deeds are transferred and registered at the Land Register.

Importantly, we work promptly to avoid any delays in the process. We will keep everything moving forward as quickly as possible for you.

We can help you transfer the ownership of your property following separation or divorce. We deal with all the legal aspects for you, including removing a spouse from the title deeds.
