Sale of flat

4

I had used Frettens previously, to extend the lease on my flat, and thought they were a good firm so was keen to use them again for its sale. Frettens dealt with my initial approach very quickly and efficiently. Once I accepted an offer, I was impressed with the way that the conveyancing and leasehold teams acted in a very joined-up manner; liaising with each other without any input necessary from me. As the sale progressed I received quick and clear advice from Edward. He has a very good telephone manner; very polite and approachable, easy to get along with and helped me to feel confident.

Highly Recommend

5

I have used Frettens many times for my conveyancing and they are always very efficient for a very competitive price. My latest transaction was a property purchase using Charlotte Pottinger assisted by Edward Carter and I couldn’t have asked for a better service. The communication was first class, being kept updated with clear instruction throughout each stage which completed within exactly 10 weeks for the price originally quoted. I highly recommend. Many thanks Charlotte & Edward!

House sale and Lease extension - Will use again for a 3rd time!

5

I called about 5/6 solicitors firms before I got to Frettens - what a breath of fresh air they were. From first call they were helpful, responsive and positive (in stark contrast to every other firm I'd spoken to). Initially, I was calling them to extend the lease on my property - and Hannah Faith was great. Helpful, transparent and I thought by far the most pleasant person I'd spoken to on this journey and who I wanted to deal with.

I'd actually already signed up to another conveyancers for the sale of my property - but I promptly switched to Frettens based on how helpful Hannah was. I was then assigned Charlotte Pottinger and Edward Carter and hit the jackpot again. They were really on the ball and always ready to answer questions. Conversely my buyers solicitors were really slow. I've yet to find a new property to buy, but when I do, I will absolutely be going back to Frettens, and have recommended them to others already.
Excellent experience.
