Good experience

I had a generally positive experience working with Laura. She was knowledgeable and ensured all the necessary steps were taken to complete the process successfully. However, I felt that some aspects of the process could have moved a bit faster. Despite this, they were responsive to inquiries and ultimately got us to completion. Overall, a solid service with room for a bit more efficiency. Thanks to the team for their efforts!

I'm a property developer and have always used Valerie homes every time I buy and sell and also recommend them to my clients, friends and family and I have never received any negative feedback from anyone. I would definitely recommend. They are brilliant, professional and make sure all details are covered and make sure the other parties solicitors send them all details which is vital!

Delighted to have had VHPL recommended to me, and I would happily recommend the firm to others – indeed I have already done so. My solicitor was very responsive, spent a lot of time talking me through various points of law relating to my purchase, and was clear on what her legal guidance was and the matters relevant to the decisions I needed to take. VHPL guided me through the buying process from start to finish, and document signing and other relevant administration was all swift and straightforward. Thanks again for a great service.
