Disappointed

It appears that a conveyancer these days never looks at previous questions they have asked you. If a buyers solicitor asks a question they just forward to the seller without looking to see if the question has been asked previously. I had to answer several questions twice. It also seems that information needed when selling a property has to be known by the seller, even though they are not a qualified conveyancer. Checks were left until the very last minute, providing delays in exchange. I will be very careful choosing a solicitor when selling my own property later in the year, needless to say it will be a different company. They say “buyer beware” - in this case it was “seller beware”

We appreciate how stressful delays in conveyancing can be, especially when you are working towards exchange, and we understand your concerns about communication and process management. Your comments are taken seriously and will be shared with the relevant team so we can review how we handle queries and improve efficiency going forward.

We used Bannister Preston as our solicitor to sell our old property, and buy our new house. I cannot recommend them enough. Very thorough and efficient. Excellent communication. Even helped to solve an issue after we had completed on our new property. 10/10 and would use again in a heart beat.

Great solicitor experience

My solicitor at Bannister Preston was Sophie Taylor and she was a massive help throughout a long and complex sale. Initially I had support from Sophie for a sale in 2025 which was unfortunately a long and hard process due to the other solicitor and buyer. When I had the news I was selling the property again at this start of this year, I notified Sophie and she was a great help from start to finish. This process seemed to run so smoothly and everything appeared to be actioned immediately. The sale wouldn’t have happened without her help so thank-you!
