Best in their field of expertise.

5

As first time buyers we were unsure and uneducated in many ways of buying a house. Sophie took away all that stress and worry by keeping us updated, well informed and was patient with some of our questions and queries. She clearly laid out all our requirements and processes to complete that helped us secure our dream home. Always quick to reply to all communications and very friendly and supportive on the telephone. We highly recommend this service.

Our experience with Sophie from Watermans was fantastic
Watermans was recommended to us through our Estate Agent and we are so happy we went with them. They matched a quote so we were getting a fair price, Sophie was so attentive, thorough, and overall, incredibly helpful!

Great experience as a first time buyer

Sophie was professional throughout and answered all my questions quickly and with great knowledge.

She made what could have been a stressful experience straightforward and she and her team (Morgan Logue) were extremely efficient and helpful.

Excellent solicitors for purchasing flat

5

As a first time buyer the process of buying a property can be stressful, but Sophie was very prompt to answering questions, making sure my concerns and questions were dealt with. Sophie made sure that all work was done in time and ensured the seller kept to time frames as well. Would definitely recommend Watermans and Sophie as solicitors.

First time buyer

5

Sophie has been the most dependable and trustworthy person during my prolonged journey of buying my flat as a first time buyer. Excellent communication with no delay and infinite patience in answering all my questions. She has kept me sane and assured through multiple delays caused by the builders. She also made easy work of withdrawing my LISA funds. I can wholeheartedly recommend her and would use her services again without hesitation.

Thank you

Sophie was fantastic when we buying a new property and selling our home. She helped us put in multiple offers and gave great advice. When our offer on our new home was accepted she kept the process totally stress free and we really appreciated the regular updates and reassurance that things were going to plan. We felt very supported by Sophie throughout the whole process and felt that we were in safe hands. I would highly recommend Sophie and if we were ever to move home again, I would contact Sophie! Thank you for all of your help.

Simple purchase of first home

5

Sophie was a pleasure to deal with. She was always very professional, efficient and she guided us through the process of buying our first home excellently, from making offers on our behalf right through to the registration of the property. Would highly recommend any first time buyers to seek out Sophie’s services.

I used Watermans to buy a property, they came recommended to me by my mortgage advisor. I dealt with Sophie, who was extremely helpful throughout the process, answering all my queries, which probably were a little silly at time as I was a first time buyer and had little knowledge on the process, and kept me up to date with any developments. Highly recommend for conveyancing, thanks to Sophie this process was a lot less stressful than I think it would've been otherwise

I had a brilliant experience buying my first flat with Watermans and will certainly be using them again in the future. Sophie provided detailed and helpful advice throughout. She was consistently patient in response to my many questions and made what I found to be quite a stressful experience much easier. Everyone else I spoke to at Watermans seemed equally lovely and knowledgeable.
