Reliable, professional and hard-working

Without going into detail, our sale was a complicated one involving three sets of buyers, questions over planning and conservation areas, and questions with building regulations approval. Sophie helped us navigate all of those with incredible patient over the course of a year. Our Subsequent purchase was also a complicated one, being a new build property involving questions on the adoption of roads and sewers. Again, Sophie helped us manage the complexities of that with her advice being invaluable. Sophie works incredibly hard, is easier to get hold of than many solicitors and her advice is clear. We highly recommend her as a conveyancing solicitor.

Used for conveyancing and totally brilliant from start to finish. They are certainly not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for and we couldn't fault them. We recommend them and would use them again.

We will definitely use them again and highly recommend anyone needing conveyancing to contact Coodes

Selling/buying houses is always stressful but Sophie and her crew at Coodes Truro make things go as smoothly as possible. They are patient, professional and, most importantly, always keep you updated. I have been using them for over 20 years and highly recommend their services.

Sale and Purchase

Lianne recently handled a sale and purchase for us. We had non stop issues with our buyers solicitors and various other issues with the property we were purchasing. Lianne was excellent throughout the entire process. Always keeping us up to date with progress and any questions we had were answered very quickly. Constantly chasing for us to make sure that we could get exchanged and completed on a short time frame. We are now in our new home and received a very nice email this morning to wish us well in our new home.

Selling a property

Truly excellent support. I was told that I would be supported to sell my property as quickly as possible. This was true to their word. The house sell took unexpectedly over 10 months to come to fruition and I was supported through the emotional turmoil. Excellent solicitor that you can feel confident in. I’m very grateful to them.

Thank you for this incredibly honest and heartfelt review. A 10-month sale is an absolute marathon, and it can be a massive emotional rollercoaster. Congratulations on finally closing this chapter, and all the very best for the future!
