Review of the Conveyancy services provided by Jessica Garthwaite

I am pleased to share my review which relates to the convenancy services provided to me by Jessica Garthwaite during the sale of 2 Otago Road, Whittlesey.

I can't praise the service Jessica Garthwaite provided highly enough in a few words.
Jessica was a delight to deal with, she was diligent, thorough, highly professional, approachable and kept me informed throughout the lengthy process of selling the property. Jessica worked tirelessly to ensure there were no delays from the selling side of the transaction. I couldn't ask for better support.
I highly recommend Jessica Garthwaite and and would have no hesitation in using Tilly Bailey & Irvine conveyancy services again.

Extremely efficient 7 easy to deal with

Having bought 8 houses and had many years as residential mortgage brokers and commercial finance brokers we can genuinely say the Conveyancing Team 3 led by Leanne Scott are the best we have ever dealt with. The communication was brilliant, we always got to speak to someone when necessary and they were always able to help. First class.

We used TB&I through our estate agents. Although we were apprehensive at first due to the distant between them and ourselves, they were great! They allowed us to push our sale and purchase through relatively quickly and were very quick to respond to any queries. Would definitely use them again!

I cannot thank Jessica and her team enough at Tilly Bailey & Irvine. The house moved through really smoothly and quickly, and Jessica was always quick to reply and guided me through the process very very effectively. There were a few minor snags with the seller's solicitor, but the team at TBI were super-great in dealing with these. I cannot thank her enough. Could not be happier, and thoroughly recommend her and her team. A very very impressive operation in Hartlepool.
