Sale and purchase of our properties

5

We have used Hay and Kilner several times now and for good reason. Moving house can be a very stressful time but Claire Simmons and her team, especially Lynn Liddle, have been excellent throughout.
I normally hesitate before giving a review in general, but in this case I have no hesitation in giving my wholehearted recommendation for this firm and not simply confined to house purchase.

Quick and easy conveyancing

We were kept fully informed throughout the process. Everything was clearly explained and all queries dealt with promptly. We were always able to speak to someone when we called, if not immediately they would call back within minutes.
