First time buyer: What you need to know before purchasing a home
Buying your first home is an exciting milestone, but it can also feel overwhelming. Our Residential Conveyancing experts at Tees
I deal with a wide range of residential property transactions which includes advising clients on freehold and leasehold sales and purchases, shared equity schemes, equity release, residential mortgages, lease extensions, adverse possession applications and property registration. I have a pragmatic approach and aim to provide practical, jargon free advice.
Clients can expect a high level professional service tailored to their individual requirements with updates on their transaction by their preferred method of communication be that, postal, electronic, telephone or face to face meetings and a full comprehensive report on any purchase. Our property team assistants are always on hand to give additional assistance to all clients should they require it at any stage.

Eleanor acted for me on the purchase of a property. With the added complication of a pre emption agreement. She was quick. Friendly and very professional. Could not recommend more highly.
