Unhelpful

My solicitor made me feel that I was taking up her time when I called her which made me feel less able to contact her. Not at all a personable service. She got the job done but would not use again.

Superb from start to finish

I cannot thank you guys enough. Super professional at all times and you always gave me the confidence that you were doing the very best you could.

Even during a tricky period where the property sale fell through, you were kind and thoughtful.

House Sale

Sills & Betteridge were recommended to us by our son, who lives locally in Lincoln and even though we lived many miles away in Windsor, Berkshire everything was handled by email, post & telephone, so it was never an issue. They were extremely efficient, friendly and very helpful with our house sale and clearly explained any legal terminology that we needed explained. We would gladly recommend them for a house sale and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. Thank you!

fast, efficient and effective service

Fantastic experience selling my house through Sills and Betteridge. Very fast efficient service with minimum fuss. They were great when first sale fell through and worked very quickly when a new buyer was found.

I will certainly use them again.

Our property move

We used the Thorne branch of Sills & Betteridge recently, they acted for us on both the sale of our house and the purchase of our new home. They were very friendly, courteous and most helpful at all times. Many thanks to Kimberley Rose for managing to complete everything as soon as possible. Also a big shout out to Thomas McConachie who dealt with us, he’s a lovely hard working and diligent young man. The communication on a regular basis was very much appreciated, it made the whole process smooth and stress free I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them
