Sarah Brimilcombe
Paralegal
Sarah has practised in social housing for over 20 years, focussing on shared ownerships leases and transactions.
Taking great care to guide clients through the process from their initial instruction through to completion of the matter. Sarah enjoys meeting new clients and helping them with:
- shared ownership plot sales and purchases
- intermediate and final staircasing
- consents to assign
- individual sales and purchases
Sarah has established a niche area acting for buyers and sellers of shared ownership properties and is recognised by several of the large Housing Associations in the South West for her skills. Sarah has a deep understanding of the legal and procedural requirements of shared ownership transactions and ensures the transactions go through smoothly and efficiently.
Sarah is able to apply a breadth of experience and strong working relationships with many registered providers, where Tozers are “approved solicitors” for many panels for shared ownership, including that of Help to Buy South West to her client relationships. This enables her to understand what is required from the Housing Provider, building developer and her clients. As a result of her reputation Sarah is regularly recommended by Housing Association clients to their buyers of shared ownership leases to ensure the sales go through smoothly.
Sarah receives a significant amount of repeat custom, as previous clients return to either purchase further shares or sell. She receives this repeat custom due to her approach – recognising that a property transaction is a key milestone in your life and placing a genuine importance on responding to queries quickly and clearly.

Smooth
Being a first time buyer there were many unknowns, Sarah helped make everything run smoothly and swiftly dealt with any uncertainty I had. This was the least stressful part of moving house by far

Great Experience
As a single dad to a 5-year-old and with a disability to manage I can;t thank Sarah/ Tozer's enough for helping me get into my Shared Ownership property. The process was relatively straight forward, sensibly priced and carried out in a timely manner.
Sarah always responded quickly to any of my queries which helped settle my nerves every time.
Buying a house takes time and unfortunately I was itching to get things sorted. The whole process took around 8 weeks from my initial contact, it just felt like a lot longer.

Great experience from start to finish
Tozers and Sarah have been amazing from start to finish! Even when nobody else has! They were transparent and kept me well

Can’t fault any of them. I hope I don’t need them much but they will be a solicitor for life now, I won’t use anyone else! AMAZING thank you!!!

Informative and helpful
Sarah and Jericha were great throughout myself and my husband buying our first home. We had no knowledge as I’d never bought before but they both answered any questions we had very promptly and were very knowledgeable. They were a pleasure to deal with. We were very happy with them and would definitely use them again in the future.
