Highly recommended, especially for first-time buyers

I would like to thank Jenny Bowyer and her team for their dedication and hard work! They were friendly, approachable, and professional. Jenny and her team were great from start to finish, and were always quick to reply to queries. As a first-time buyer, it was a quite daunting experience, but I felt in extremely capable hands. I would definitely recommend their firm’s services.

Fantastic service throughout

We instructed Catteralls to undertake the repayment of our Help to Buy loan, and throughout the entire process Jenny, Sarah and Codie were absolutely fantastic. They kept us up to date with where they were, dealt with the matter quickly and efficiently and were on hand for any questions we had. We will certainly be returning to Catteralls should we need solicitors again in the future.

House Sale & Purchase

Jenny Bowyer was our Coveyancing solicitor and can honestly say that had it not been for Jenny’s efforts in constantly chasing and updating the whole chain during the last 10 days of our sale and purchase it would never have happened.
Jenny’s communication with us was brilliant, realistic and honest and can only imagine how much time over and above our conveyancing consumed during the latter stages. Can’t thank Jenny and the team at Catteralls enough for their enormous efforts - we really appreciate it and would recommend them without question.

Efficient, patient, and went the extra mile to get us moved by Christmas

Jenny B at Catteralls was fantastic for us. I chose this firm thanks to good reviews and a speedy response time, and I’m pleased with my decision.
The costs and paperwork were straightforward, communication was excellent throughout, and Jenny pushed to get us in the house on the 21st December, when cut-off is usually before then. Jenny was patient and honest about our seller and helped us as first time buyers to understand the process. Would recommend 100%.

Divorce and Financial Matters

I recently used Rebecca Baker at Catterals to handle the financial matters to do with my divorce.

Rebecca and her Assistant Jessica Bullock were fantastic throughout the whole process, from the initial meeting to end of the process which included submitting the financial consent order with the courts.

The fees charged were very reasonable and in line with the initial expectations discussed in the initial meeting.

I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for this service.

Came across Catteralls via an online quotes website (Uswitch) and their price quote seemed reasonable. However I didn't count on 1. them sticking to around the number quoted and 2. delivering as efficient a service as they did. I was wrong. Final invoice was very close to what as quoted and the matter was dealt with very well.

Paul Kininmonth was delightful and a pleasure to deal with. Was very patient with my questions and definitely knew his way around all aspects of the purchase. Emails were replied to reasonably quickly and I hardly had to chase. I'd definitely use them again.

For the benefit of any first time buyers out there, here's a list of milestones with dates to give you an idea as to how long things looked for me;

Deal stats: Small 2 bed flat (leasehold) with buyer and seller not being in chains respectively.

Viewed - 23/04

First offer made - 24/04

Response received - 24/04

Second/Final offer made - 24/04

Mortgage appointment - 26/04

Mortgage application made/received - 27/04

Offer accepted - 29/04

Catteralls appointed - 01/05

Valuation by mortgage provider 13/05

Mortgage offer issued - 14/05

Revised mortgage offer issued - 30/05
