Residential property law

Moving home can be one of the most stressful experiences in our lives. Whether you are a first time buyer or have done this many times before, the excitement we all experience is coupled with anxiety and worry.

Our experienced Residential Property Law Team will provide you with clear, helpful advice to guide you through this process and make matters as clear and straightforward as possible, whilst doing all we can to meet your anticipated timescale.

Our property lawyers can provide comprehensive advice and assist you throughout your sale and/or purchase of a property or land. We can also deal with the requirements of any remortgage, equity release or auction. We are experienced in liaising with your mortgage lender, estate agents and other third parties to ensure your transaction is brought to a smooth and efficient conclusion.

We have produced our own booklet explaining the process of buying and selling a house from both sides of the transaction (with typical timescales), which we send to all new clients before starting work. You can also find out more on the Legal Choices website.

Fantastic overall experience from Hayley Holland and all her team from the Taunton office. This being our very first purchase, Hayley made us feel extremely comfortable asking questions. She was always quick to respond never left us wondering what was going on. From start to finish our purchase was 7 weeks, couldn’t have done that without the help of Hayley, Oliver, Abi and Caitlin. If you want quick, helpful and friendly service, I would 100% recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much Hayley for all your hard work.

We asked Caron Abbott of Porter Dodson's Sherborne office to act for us in selling a property. Caron was a pleasure to deal with - polite, to the point, patient especially given the buyer's side of the sale were decidedly fussy, and extremely punctual in handling the communications between the parties. I wouldn't hesitate to ask Caron for help again should we have further legal needs.
