Tim is one of our longest serving employees, having joined us in 1987 as a Partner in our Commercial Property department. In 1994, he became Head of our Property department before becoming our Managing Partner in 2002 and serving as our Senior Partner from 2010 until 2020. He firmly believes in the need to establish a proper understanding of the people with whom he works with, both clients and colleagues. This is what we regard as “treating the whole patient”. In his dealings with his clients he believes he can only provide a proper service to them if he fully understands all their relevant surrounding circumstances; with his staff he believes it is essential to understand each person’s motivation and career aspirations. Since 2011, Tim has overseen the development of the firm’s strategy, based on this principle, of providing innovative services which differentiate the firm from its competitors, and attracting the best possible candidates for the growth of the individual teams.

    Sale of my father’s property

    Tim Crarer has been extremely helpful, courteous and professional in assisting us with the sale of my father’s property following his death in October. Any questions or queries my brothers or I had, have been answered promptly and efficiently by Tim and his team. Would most definitely recommend their services!

    Sale of Dowtys Dinton SP3 5ES

    This was a complex sale involving registration of a small area of the site of Dowtys not previously registered with the land registry owing to the original purchase plan being incorrectly drawn. The land registry was particularly slow in dealing with the case and failed to notify us as applicants of an objection to the registration. That objection which it turned out was wholly unfounded lead to a further delay and protracted negotiations with the purchaser’s solicitor and the need for insurance to be taken out . There were other detailed points relating to the services connecting to the property eventually requiring purchase of insurance policies to satisfy the purchaser’s solicitor. All these matters were handled by Tim Crarer with persistent back up from Lynda Rhodes in an exemplary manner. The success of the sale of Dowtys in a very difficult housing market was made possible by Tim’s skill and considerable patience in dealing with a remarkably obdurate solicitor acting for the purchaser . We should add the patience and skill of Charlie Stone of Rural View Estate Agents acting for us who liaised closely with Tim was of significant assistance in bringing this sale to a satisfactory conclusion. My wife and I are immensely grateful for and impressed by the real legal expertise shown by our chosen team and especially that of Tim Crarer.

    Complicated Freehold issues

    I reached out to Tim at Parker Bullen when I had a complicated Freehold/Leasehold issue that the conveyancer on my sale could not deal with. Thanks to Tim's wealth of expertise, we were able to come up with a clever resolution without which I would have been stuck and not able to sell my house. Tim was a pleasure to deal with as he was very responsive, proactively communicated frequently and helped navigate a stressful situation with calm reassurance. Would highly recommend.

    As always Tim and Chantelle were very approachable which goes a long way when dealing with potentially stressful situations such as a property sale. Although Tim was on holiday at the latter stages Chantelle continued to act in a manner that the process was seamless.

    Tim Crarer & Lynda were Fantastic. Easy to communicate with, great updates and happy to work as a team with an estate agent to hit a deadline. Couldn’t recommend more for conveyancing. Thanks all.
