My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the property agent told us that the seller will only proceed if we instruct their preferred conveyancers as they need a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer who is accustomed to conveyancing in Canning Town
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this demand. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to appoint your preferred Canning Town conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will give the estate agent a commission or achieve conveyancing thresholds pre-set by HQ.
