Review of professional services for sale of property
From initial contact all the way through to completion I was extremely pleased with the service I received. All emails and questions were answered immediately, making the process practically stress free for me.
I had to do very little chasing, and I was always given a full explanation as to why things may have been taking longer than expected. I felt like a priority, which in previous similar situations, is not always the case. I couldn’t be happier with my decision to choose Pardoes.

Conveyancing
Pardoes conveyancing team, particularly Debbie, proved to be friendly, efficient and wholly professional in everything they did for my sister in law who had to sell her house and move to a care home.
They were very supportive and understood the family circumstances, which are a bit complex, immediately they were explained.
I can honestly recommend this firm to anyone who has to buy or sell a property. They are probably not the cheapest around but if you want a professional expect to pay a fair price.

The sale of a property.
As always efficient and professional. From my point of view a difficult sale that took longer than anticipated, but completed by the efficiency of this team headed by Nicola Hughes. I want to click on all the boxes of how to describe this firm, but think I have covered the essence of their working practices.

Sale of No8 Albany House, HA8 5AL
Considering there were 2 previous buyers before this sale, the first dropping out as I could not get Vacant Possession in time and the second, as I chose to offer No8 to a new buyer. The Conveyancing was dealt with efficiently and in good spirit.
Leasehold sales are now particularly difficult to find a buyer and to Complete the Conveyancing.
Overall, a good result.

Hi Peter, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. As you have said Leasehold sales are now difficult to deal with, particularly with various third parties being involved via the Landlord and Management Companies; this coupled with the current legislation over ground rent provisions and ever changing lender requirements which differ from lender to lender, make the process challenging. I am glad that we got the outcome of the completed sale. Kind regards, Nicola.

Pardoes, a professional conveyancing firm
Pardoes was professional from start to finish. Our home buying process wasn't a simple case, Pardoes managed to navigate seamlessly through all the challenges with ease. I would highly recommend Pardoes for your conveyancing needs.
