SDC were fantastic with us from start to finish. They were prompt in responding to any and all queries we had, efficient in obtaining checks and other important documents, and expertly guided a couple of clueless first time buyers through the shared ownership buying process. They even got us an exchange and completion date within 5-6 weeks of instruction. Can't recommend highly enough!

Overall review of SDC

Shared Direction were initially referred to us via our mortgage broker. Overall the service was good with them, they had the most competitive quote offered compared to local companies we looked at individually. Our solicitor Nonceba dealt with us very well considering we are first time buyers, she was always on hand to provide updates and answer any questions we had. I would recommend them and we will also use them again when it comes to staircasing matters.

Great service

Overall a relatively good experience from Shared Direction Conveyancing. Once asked they are great at explaining but as a first time buyer there is no guidance on what to expect and how long bits take.

But all I can say is the team pulled the hat out of the bag on exchange & completion day as this did not happen until just gone 5:30pm due to an issue with property.

Great work buy everyone I came in contact with at Shared Direction.

I had the best experience with shared direction. Their communication was top notch. If I call and there was no answer, they would call back. All questions were answered properly. I would recommend Shared Direction.

I am glad that I am over dealing with SDLT. I have been in so much stress dealing with them until even after my house was completed, they were still asking for mortgage deed to besigned despite of me sending this 4 times to them and spent a lot of money just to have these documents posted secured! I have been chasing my application myself and chased the local authority just for us to complete on time! Otherwise, we may have completed end of September! If you dont push them, they will never give you update or do any actions! Which is not supposed to be as you paid them for your application to be smoothly processed. However it wasnt the case! I am so disappointed as as a FTB I have to go through this and I have learned my lesson not to use them the next time! I should even be paying myself as I was mostly doing all the chasing! Even the mortgage offer from the Lender I have to contact them myself just for them to receive this on time! I would avoid them specially the Birmingham branch. Still giving 2 stars as atleast my application was completed but LOADS OF CHASING!!!!!

Stephen Crow has been so amazing throughout our experience. I'm sure he had so many cases on his plate but he was always able to provide an update when I requested one. It got stressful towards the end but he was able to give very detailed explanations of what was happening and he worked tirelessly to get us where we needed to be. Very grateful he was a part of the process!

They may be doing a great job, or not. I don’t know because they give nothing other than the occasional automatically generated message. If you hit a bump in the road don’t expect to be told. Don’t expect them to chase information from other solicitors, or give you any information even if you contact by any method. Don’t expect the main office to be any more help than your solicitor. Personally, I’d say give some other solicitor a go.
