Property conveyance with challenges

5

I had no hesitation in instructing Fraser Dawbarns in Downham Market with regard to the sale of my parents property as Sole Executor.
Fraser Dawbarns had been initially highly recommended by a neighbour and as a result acted for my son in the purchase of a property in 2017.
The sale of my parents property involved three different sets of buyers before a successful outcome.
I found all of the staff very friendly and helpful. The conveyancing team was particularly supportive during the difficulties encountered. My enquiries always received a same day response and I cannot fault the advice given. Perspective was never lost. I always had confidence that whatever I was charged would reflect the work undertaken. The transfer of proceeds upon completion of the sale was highly efficient.
I am pleased to unreservedly recommend the Fraser Dawbarns, Downham Market Conveyancing Team.

Moving home can be a very stressful time. Finding a good solicitor is key. Fraser Dawbarns were excellent- dealing with all issues immediately and crucially keeping me updated throughout. The whole process was handled very smoothly and professionally.

It has been many years since last buying a property, so was unsure of the process. However Fraser Dawbarns promptly answered all our questions and help guide us through the process.
The whole exchange of contract was quick and efficient.
