This area covers people buying their first home in England. It includes the steps from offer through to completion, mortgage fine-tuning, searches, and registration of ownership at HM Land Registry, plus identifying and applying any available reliefs such as first-time buyer stamp duty land tax relief. A solicitor handles drafting or reviewing contracts, coordinating with lenders, arranging surveys, liaising with the seller’s side, and ensuring the transfer of title and funds completes correctly and securely.
A first-time purchase involves time-sensitive steps: confirming funding, negotiating missives, and finalising transfer documents, with deadlines controlled by contract law, stamp duty relief eligibility, and the registration of title. A solicitor concentrates on protecting your position through accurate contract checks, ensuring proper payment of taxes, and overseeing the lodgement and registration process so ownership is legally vested in you.

Tagged solicitors James Folly and Shamilah Malik
I have recently gone through the process of buying my first flat, and have just recently completed. As someone who has not gone through this process before it was very daunting, however James and Shamilah were so informative, communicative and helpful throughout the entire process. At no point was I left with any unanswered questions or queries on next steps. The whole process was managed by them very smoothly and I am so happy with the outcome. I would highly recommend this team to anyone buying a first property - or any others for that matter - I am sure their services is top notch no matter what the case.

We had a really pleasant experience working with the team at BTMK. From start to finish, they were quick to respond, reassuring, and kept us updated every step of the way. As first-time buyers, we had a lot of questions, but the team were always happy to help and never made us feel like we were asking too much. They made what could have been a stressful process feel much smoother and gave us plenty of reassurance along the way. A huge thank you to Zia, Melinda & Kevin for all your help and for making our first experience of buying a house such a smooth and positive one. We really appreciate it! 🏡

Tagged solicitor Kyrylo Sudnyk
Kyrylo assisted me throughout a lengthy and complex set of negotiations relating to a property-related dispute. From the outset, he was extremely supportive and made the process clear and easy to follow at every stage. He was consistently responsive, approachable, and understanding, and took the time to explain options and next steps in a way that gave me the confidence to move forward. I am very grateful for his professionalism and dedication, and would not hesitate to recommend him.
