Conveyancing 2025

Because a friend had given such a high recommendation, I expected a more pleasant, personable experience, but sadly it felt very impersonal. I hoped to meet Isil briefly to build a personal connection but that request was ignored. I had hoped a weekly update would be standard, but instead I had to ask for that each time. It seemed my transaction was very low priority, with quite a long delay after the queries were received before they were dealt with. I did appreciate Liz's explanations the time I had questions and the way things were handled quickly and efficiently in the last week. Technical matter: I mentioned to your receptionist early on that the hold music on the telephone system is very bad (dreadfully distorted music much too loud - annoying and unprofessional) but this remained the same for the full 11 weeks I dealt with the firm. I recommend that a member of staff calls in from outside and asks to be put on hold to experience this! I'm sorry, but few of the boxes below are things I would say about this firm. Someone recently asked me if I would recommend Wragg Mark-Bell and my answer was "no".

Second time dealing with Isil and once again excellent service throughout. Neither purchase was straightforward but Isil ensured all our needs, both formal and informal, were met before proceeding. Would highly recommend and wouldn't go anywhere else for conveyancing despite the 3 hour round trip.

Very Attentive Service. Used the services of Isil Cowan to purchases a property outside Cumbria, and although there were difficulties, Isil was extremely diligent and tenacious in ensuring the purchase went through by the preferred date. All done quickly and efficiently by email. I would highly recommend.

Very helpful, prompt to respond, friendly and approachable. Isil made everything very easy, and the price was also considerably less than that charged by the nearest competitor. Thanks!

I recommend them to everyone I know. Beth and Isil delivered a quality service that went above and beyond which helped us to acquire our first house swiftly. After the first house fell through they helped us through the searches and paperwork in under three weeks which was incredible. Fairly priced and great service always. We were recommended by a friend and they did not disappoint.
