Efficient and effective conveyancing with excellent communications.

5

Excellent support, advice and communications from Sarah H for the fairly straight-forward sale of my sister's home while going through probate (handled by a colleague in the same firm).

When I informed my estate agent that Sarah H at Eccles Heddon was dealing with the sale, they were very happy and confident everything would be handled efficiently and professionally - and they were right.

On the few occasions we needed to exchange information and documents, she was quick to reply and clarify all points raised. All necessary actions were promptly taken without any delays.

Sarah always replied to emails or phone requests on the same day - mostly immediately or within a couple of hours. This was refreshing and exceeded my expectations which were not very high in this regard based on my previous conveyancing experiences.

Would certainly recommend Eccles Heddon for conveyancing services.

Smooth sale and purchase

5

Sarah proved herself to be very capable, approachable and supremely well organised. We were kept fully informed at every stage and would not hesitate to recommend Sarah to family and friends. Sarah was proactive and was true to her word. Chiara too deserves a mention. Between them they made a potentially stressful situation remarkably unstressful, and straightforward even though timescales were tight.

Painless property purchase

5

Sarah Hargreaves was recommended to us when we began the process of buying a house in Thirsk. Sarah and her secretary Chiara were both brilliant, we were able to take documents into the office and always got them back when we agreed. We were kept informed every stage of the process and it really was a pain-free experience.

First Time Buyers

5

We used Sarah Hargreaves to purchase our shared ownership first time home. Highly recommended she did not disappoint and made our dream come true. Sarah has excellent communication throughout the process, a good rapport answering emails promptly with our interests put first in a professional and diligent manner. As First time buyers we had not used a solicitor before, alien to the conveyancing world Sarah explained matters to us, thoroughly guided and advised throughout with no stone left unturned. We completed before Christmas thanks to Sarah. She delivered outstanding service and value for money. We would use her again and recommend to anyone.

First House Purchase

5

I would like to express my gratitude to Sarah Hargreaves’s for making my first time buying experience of my house, such a memorable and enjoyable time in my life. The whole process was completed in a very professional manner by Sarah, who had such an organised approach that it took all the pressure away from me the whole time that it took for this transaction to be completed. It was done at speed with every step explained to me in advance so I was fully aware at all times what was going on when and why. Sarah and her secretary were available at all times for advice when required and also to be of assistance regarding any required literature including postal correspondence. I would highly recommend Sarah and her team and would have no hesitation in using or recommending Eccles Heddon to anyone in the future to act on their behalf.

House conveyancing made very easy!

5

Sarah was such an efficient, thorough and clear solicitor. She helped me with terms I had never encountered in all the paperwork (as a first time seller) and dealt with the buyer solicitors very quickly, only asking me when necessary: I probably never knew the extent of her work. Sarah called to check details for the final completion outside of working hours (above and beyond!) and made sure everything went to plan: I was so grateful!

Sarah was excellent

5

Sarah was our conveyancing solicitor for our purchase and she was truly excellent.

As first time buyers, the process of buying a house is unfamiliar and daunting at first. Our fear was that we’d be bogged down with legal paperwork we don’t understand with the potential of making mistakes or being misled, deliberately or otherwise, by agents, solicitors and the range of unnecessary middlemen that rear their heads during the process of buying a house.

However, our experience with Sarah was second to none as throughout the process she was efficient, knowledgable, highly responsive, showed a personal touch, and we felt like we were in safe hands at all times. If ever we had a query, Sarah would promptly reply which gave us peace of mind if ever something concerned us, and would give us clear advice we knew we could trust.

We really appreciate Sarah’s hard work and we would like to recommend her to anyone who is purchasing a house.

THIRSK - Sarah Hargreaves

5

This is the fourth occasion that I have been fortunate enough to have Sarah Hargreaves represent me.
Sarah is extremely proactive with excellent communication skills and has always navigated me through house sales and purchases with great ease.
More recently I had the misfortune of having a management company involved with my sale. Sarah handled them with great ease whilst I am aware that others have struggled with engaging them with their sales
Outstanding service and all the administration staff are great
Wouldn’t use any other solicitor

Could not fault them!

5

Sarah has been absolutely amazing with assisting me in buying my first home! I could not fault her at all. My experience of buying a home as a single person was incredibly stressful but Sarah had made it as quick as she possibly could. She’s super responsive and answered every question I had no matter how silly I thought it was. I would recommend her to anyone!

One again Sarah Hargreaves gave me nothing but an outstanding service from start to finish
Sarah is very proactive knowledgeable and thorough and is always there at the end of the phone should any questions arise
I am very fortunate that on two occasions Sarah has agreed to act on my behalf
With the back up of Michael Briggs together they make property buying/selling a lot less stressful and are a great team

Thank you for your lovely review Carol, it will be much appreciate by Sarah to know how useful you found her service to be, she always tries to go above and beyond for her clients. It was so nice of you to mention Michael as well, he has recently started a Training Contract with us on his way to being a Solicitor himself, so this will be very much appreciated by him as well.

We used Eccles Heddon LLP for a house purchase. They were excellent, especially as there were some complications with our purchase. Sarah in the conveyancing team communicated clearly throughout the process and was always available to answer questions. I would recommend them to anyone looking for legal services in the Thirsk area.
