Conveyancing & Financial Advice

It's key that you leave this important job in the hands of the professionals

We have a recommended conveyancing solicitor based locally who we have worked alongside on a regular basis for many years and we thoroughly recommend them.
When they are involved in a sale or purchase it enables us to get updates quickly and regularly, which can prove difficult for an agent if there is no relationship with the conveyancer.
Naturally you can use a conveyancer of your own choice, but the most important thing is to ensure that they come highly recommended as they have the power to control the timescales involved in a sale or purchase.
We are also associated with Lee at JLM Mortgages who works from our offices a few days a week. Lee represents all lenders and we have worked alongside Lee for over 12 years.
His work ethic is the same as ours “it’s all about what is right for you, our client, not about what is right for us”, he will always be honest and aim to get you the best deal possible.

Our Mission

A flexible approach

We aim to be available when you need us, we are here before and after working hours Monday to Sunday 8:00am to 6:00pm.

To Summarise

The First Step Way

Potential purchasers can call us Monday to Sunday 8:00am to 6:00pm.
All viewings will be carried out by a professional, knowledgeable team member familiar with your property (not casual weekend staff – who have never viewed your property).
We are flexible and will meet all prospective purchasers at your property to suit your diary and lifestyle schedules
We attract more buyers as our ‘shop door’ never closes.
Unlike other agents we offer late evening and weekend viewings to suit the busy lifestyle of our clients especially commuters, even collecting them from the train station.
