House purchase

Although a lengthy process through no fault of the solicitor. Melissa kept me informed every step of the way and was always available to answer my questions. She made a very stressful time a bit easier. She ensured that everything was investigated thoroughly and therefore giving me peace of mind that my purchase didn’t run into problems later on down the line.

Sophie and the Team at Beswicks were professional and efficient- working in a timely manner right from the beginning of the process.

Everything was explained and in the mine field of being a first time buyer and unsure they answered every query- big or small.
