Conveyance on Sale and Purchase

Harriet Mentern was at all times approachable, professional, polite and friendly and ensured our understanding throughout the process which at the best of times, was most frustrating due to circumstances beyond her control. Harriet maintained composure and patience, always kept us informed and reassured in a timely manner, and listened to our concerns, which was so helpful during a stressful time.

Excellent service

From start to finish everything was brilliant, we are first time buyers and Harriet was amazing through the whole Journey. It wasn’t the simplest of purchasers due to numerous things not within control. Harriet was amazing at explaining everything and broke anything we weren’t sure of into terms we understood. I would happily recommend Harriet to anyone, and can’t thank her enough for all the hard work and support through the process. Thank you.

Perfect conveyancing

Claudia was professional, friendly and supportive throughout the process. She kept us regularly informed and explained each stage clearly and was always accessible whether in person or by phone or email. She coordinated the completion date successfully which was not straightforward. Moving house is inevitably stressful but Claudia made it as smooth and worry free as it could be. Therefore a belated thanks and we would recommend Blanchard Bailey without hesitation.

Highly recommended - Claudia and team acted for us on the sale of my mother's flat and were excellent throughout the process - good clear practical advice, excellent communication, always available if I had questions, swift responses when I did, and the efficiency and drive to get what was at certain times a tricky process completed. In particular, Claudia was fantastic with my Mum which was very much appreciated. I've done a few property transactions over the years and never rated a solicitor higher than this team - would recommend to anyone.

Very professional service with the human touch added. Following my misunderstanding Meggie Crane went above and beyond anything we could have expected to help us resolve the situation with no benefit to herself. Fantastic friendly service that I would happily recommend to anyone.

Blanchards Bailey helped us to purchase our first property and we could not fault their service!
Harriet was honestly amazing and we couldn't have asked for someone more hard working or swift to take our case on.
Her communication was great from the start and if we needed advice or had any questions, she had answers for us straight away.
From our offer being accepted at the start of Jan, to getting the keys on the 16th of March, Harriet made the whole process so smooth.
We hugely appreciate your hard work and would absolutely recommend Blanchards Bailey.
