    House purchase for Dad

    Great experience dealing with Bethany at RFB when buying dad’s house. A friendly, common-sense approach just made the stressful process of purchasing a house so much simpler than another solicitor we are using for our own purchase.

    I cannot recommend Mashura Siddika highly enough. Having used RFB for more than ten years and worked with several solicitors at the firm, I can honestly say that the service I received from Mashura was exceptional. Throughout the sale of my property, she was consistently professional, patient and highly responsive. After two previous sales had fallen through, the process was understandably stressful, but Mashura remained positive and encouraging and helped me maintain hope that we would finally reach completion. She always replied promptly to my questions and kept me informed at every stage. When the sellers’ solicitors were slow to respond, she was appropriately firm and persistent while remaining professional and respectful. I always felt that she was protecting my interests and doing everything possible to move matters forward. I am immensely grateful to Mashura for her expertise, care and determination in bringing the transaction to a successful conclusion. She is an outstanding solicitor and a tremendous credit to RFB. I would recommend her without hesitation.

    Mark Toland and Suzanne Nasery were both Outstanding. Re-mortgaging two Commercial HMO properties with Castle Trust but able to turn it around from instruction to completion in only 2 weeks was Unbelievable. Direct and fluid conversation and communication puts Mark and Suzanne above the rest. Our experience was fantastic and will spur us on to re-invest and re-mortgage further. If your are re-mortgaging HMO and Commercial and drawing down on equity Mark and Suzanne will deliver where we have had numerous experiences in the past where panel Solicitors are woeful and will not get into dialogue and just keyboard warriors which in Business really does not assure you as an Investor and then feel just a number. RFB and Mark and Suzanne smashed it where other fail.

    from Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP

    Thank you so much for the exceptional feedback, Graham! Turning around a double commercial HMO re-mortgage in just two weeks is an incredible result, and we’re thrilled that Mark and Suzanne’s proactive, direct communication made such a difference to your experience. We look forward to working with you again on your future investments.

    From our initial phone call through to completion four months later on our commercial property purchase, Deema and Sanah were outstanding. We never once had to chase for a response — if anything, they were helping me stay on track with the required timelines and next steps. Their communication was clear, consistent and proactive throughout. It’s rare to encounter a law firm that is both so client-centred in its approach and genuinely friendly to work with. I would highly recommend them and will certainly be using their services again.

    Currently trying to organise a remortgage of a property, so far this has taken over four months. Inaccurate information given leading to multiple delays and could have caused additional costs but luckily I kept questioning these and was eventually advised it wasn’t necessary. If you are looking for a prompt efficient company do not look here, I certainly won’t be using them again.

    Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP

    I’m really sorry to hear about the delays and inaccurate information you’ve experienced during your remortgage process. We understand how frustrating and stressful that can be, especially when it risks additional costs. Your feedback is very important, and we’ll be reviewing this to prevent similar issues in the future. If you’d like to discuss your case further or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

      Fantastic Communication and Service

      Charles was fantastic throughout the sale of my flat. He was always quick to respond and every question or email I sent was dealt with on the same day. Communication was excellent, and I always knew what was happening. The whole process went much more smoothly than I expected. I never had to chase for updates or remind him to follow things up, as he was always one step ahead. He was patient, helpful, and explained everything clearly whenever I was unsure about something. Buying or selling a property can be stressful, but Charles made it feel easy. His efficiency and professionalism gave me complete confidence that everything was being handled properly. I would definitely use Charles again in the future and would not hesitate to recommend him to family and friends. Five stars well deserved.
