Complicated completion on sale of house

We instructed Jonathon on the sale of Mums house as she had moved into a care home. We accepted an offer and moved forward. During this time Mum passed away and this made the matter more complex. We also then instructed Liz and the two worked together well. As matters were due to complete the buyer made extra demands and Jonathon's advice was valuable in getting the matter completed on the original terms.
