Terrible conveyancing solicitors
Having to sell two properties to buy one, I appointed BHB to carry out all conveyancing as I had used them before with the purchase of my first property.
I’ll share the “ highlights”. Paperwork sent to us by our solicitors that was incomplete, and unsigned by the vendor of the property we planned to purchase. Not checked by our solicitor prior to sending to us.
After 6 weeks of awaiting answers to the incomplete questions, we made the 150 mile round trip to get the answers we needed, and the vendors signature - work both parties were paying their solicitors for.
During the sale of my partners house, he was not kept informed by our solicitors of what was going on. To the point that were were not advised the completion would be a SIM, and we almost didn’t get into our new house on the day, which would have incurred thousands in storage fees and return of the van several days later as the removers were fully booked. Finally, to add insult to injury, BHB decided at some arbitrary point that as the sale of my property had not completed quickly enough, that I owed them over £850 in abortive fees. AVOID! A bunch of rip of merchants
