Residential property conveyancing

We are in the process of relocating to another part of the country and would highly recommend Chris Brewis and Tracey Fenner in property conveyancing. They have been very prompt, efficient and always helpful throughout this once in a lifetime move. They have very much acted in our best interests throughout. I look forward to using them again very soon once we find a permanent property to purchase in our new location.

Very complicated sale made easier with good legal representation. Both Chris and Tracey went the extra mile to push this sale forward. They faced many challenges and overcame them all. I have used these guys on many occasions and their work is exemplary. Friendly and approachable which is always very helpful.

Conveyancing

Chris Brewis & Tracey Fenner have been excellent in carrying out my conveyancing, in particular they have had to deal with a not responsive and inefficient lawyer who acted on behalf of the other party.
They kept me informed and ensured the process kept progressing.

Highly recommend them.

Chris Brewis assisted by Tracey Fenner and Jessica Dance provided an excellent service on our probate house sale. I found them to be very responsive and helpful throughout the process. We wanted to exchange quickly and Chris and the team worked diligently and met our target date. The web portal for completing the forms and uploading documents is very convenient. You don't have to use it, but I thought it worked well and saved a lot of faffing around. Happy to recommend.

Chris Brewis and Tracey Fenner provided a FIRST CLASS SERVICE - attentive to detail, careful, professional, knowledgeable, friendly and supportive, and above all they understood the transaction, its important points and its risks.
They made sure it was carried out successfully.
