Many thanks to Leta who took care of the sale of my flat recently. Leta made the process smooth whilst others seemed to be intent on making the process more complicated that it needed to be.

Excellent service all round.

When we purchased a property recently, we did not hesitate to instruct Stephen Rimmers. They are highly professional and communication is excellent. The process was problem free and Leta Kerin and her team looked after us fantastically well. At all times we felt we were in 'safe hands'. A BIG thank you to the conveyancing team. We would highly recommend Stephen Rimmers.
