All seems to have gone reasonably well. The paperwork received had some old clauses in it from our purchase in 2010. Luckily we had copies filed from that transaction otherwise we would have had difficulty in understanding them. Thank you

Michelle Norish at Scott Richards dealt with a transfer of equity/remortgage for my home, and provided me with excellent service throughout. She explained things clearly and kept me updated regularly. She went above and beyond to get things through to completion in my required timescale. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Could you make sure that the management companies are actually paying the rents as your company called them. I've got evidence in cheques and demands that I've paid mine.so I'm morally sound.But if you are following the lafra bill you will know that us leaseholders are at the sharp end of dodgy practices

We cannot see that you are a client of ours. Notwithstanding, we have no control over what management companies do in respect of rents and how the decisions they make have any relevance to the services we provide to our clients.
