What is different about your site and other internet conveyancing brokers for conveyancing in Wisbech?

At this site secure an accurate costs illustration from a Solicitor or Licensed Conveyancer that understands the nuances of your conveyancing in Wisbech. Unlike many estate agents and brokerage sites we are not in the business of charging firms a fee if you choose them for your home move in Wisbech

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the property agent told us that the vendor will only issue a contract if we use the agent's recommended solicitors as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Wisbech

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this requirement. Should the vendor require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are motivated buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with finances in place © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to use your preferred Wisbech conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give their estate agent a commission or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by corporate headquarters.
