TYPICAL PROCESS – SIMPLIFIED
• Issue-focused alerts: When lender or housing association queries could affect your sale, we flag the impact, recommend options and act immediately to resolve them. • Decision-ready explanations: Clear pros and cons for every choice – for example, whether to accept particular lease clauses or delay staircasing – so you decide with full knowledge. • No surprises: We highlight any hidden costs and future liabilities (service charge trends, permission conditions, subletting restrictions) before you commit.
We specialise in Shared Ownership for first time buyers. That means we focus on the common pain points – complex leases, housing association requirements, lender conditions, service charges and staircasing – and remove uncertainty with plain English, timely updates and proactive problem-solving. From your initial instruction to completion and aftercare, you get a dedicated solicitor who treats communication as a core legal skill, not an optional extra.
