A huge thank you to Gwen and Patuni for all their hard work throughout what was a particularly difficult and complicated sale. They handled every challenge professionally and kept us informed throughout and were always responsive when we needed guidance or reassurance. We felt we could trust their advice completely and their persistence was a huge part of getting the sale over the line. I would not hesitate to recommend them. Brilliant team.

We had a great experience with Gwen and her assistant Patuni for the conveyancing of our very first home. They were responsive, attentive, and very meticulous. We felt very reassured that they would take care of every aspect of the process, which was quite complex as it involved a brand new lease and creating shares of a freehold. Would absolutely recommend their services and we will be definitely back in the future when we need it.

Got there in the end with the remortgage but there was big lacking in communication and updates throughout. Took multiple weeks of chasing to get updates most of the time. Even now I’m owed money and still chasing to get it (even though I was told by the mortgage provider it was paid to them weeks ago)
