Seamless

5

Her calm attitude and voice made a tricky vendor and very lazy solicitor a smooth and seamless transition, while ticking all the boxes of everything that needed to be done, under the extra pressure of time pressure of the tax rise deadline. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

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.
