Avoid the agents and go straight to the owners and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to use your own,trusted Timsbury conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a commission or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by senior management.

Online reading suggests that Timsbury solicitors are more expensive than licensed conveyancers in Timsbury to use when buying a property. Am I better off using a conveyancer or a solicitor if I am purchasing for my home move in Timsbury.
