House sale through to completion

Sale of property

After thirty years in one house I finally decided it was time to move and was recommended to Keeley Hanmer at Foort Tayler. Keeley made the whole conveyance process from first contact with her to completion simple and very straightforward. She kept me informed through all the stages and it was an absolute pleasure dealing with her.

Excellent. All the team were professional, but with special thanks to Leanne Smith and Katie Lane, who were both always on hand by email or phone to answer any query raised. Information provided was always fully explained in layman’s terms. The whole process was carried out with extreme efficiency. They made the other solicitors involved in the chain, look very slow and sometimes inaccurate

Keeley recently helped me with a property purchase. From start to finish the service was excellent. The purchase ran smoothly and I was kept informed during the whole process. I received prompt responses to emails and excellent advice. I would definitely recommend Keeley and Foort Taylor.

19 years later im still using Foott Tayler

Ever since buying my first home 19 years ago I have only ever used Foort Tayler to buy and sell houses. I’m so impressed with their service that I’ve also used them to process a divorce and my will.

This time around we had a tricky chain and Keeley has been amazing. She provides clear advice and guidance and when urgency is needed she is on it!! During such a stressful process it’s one less thing to worry about knowing we have a very experienced solicitor looking after us. Thank you Keeley

Leanne was really helpful and knowledgable with the whole process. I was quite anxious seeing as it was my first time buying, but she made the whole process seem simpler from the get go.

From our first contact with Katie we found her clear, in explaining what we needed to do, helpful, in the support she gave us in doing the various unfamiliar tasks, and professional at all times, in a down to earth, efficient way. We would have no hesitation in recommending her to others.

Myself and my family have all used Foort Tayler for years without any issues. I just completed on my second purchase using them. Prompt communication and excellent attention to detail. Always available to talk and willing to explain anything I didn't understand. I really would not consider using anyone else.
