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.

Thank you for all your help and support throughout the sale, you made it a very stress free process considering we have not experienced anything like this before.

Michelle Wilson handled my complicated flat sale with the addition of a lease extension. There were many stages to the sale spanning over 7 months and she explained the process and what needed to happen. I was anxious as the sale did take time, but Michelle was calm and provided clear and reassuring advice and guidance. I would recommend her for any sale, she is professional and gives you realistic advice, all which I found really helpful. Thank you again Michelle for all your help.

So glad I instructed Nicola Hughes to handle my purchase, her reputation precedes her. Nicola does not give up without exhausting all options and somehow makes the impossible happen. Thank you so much Nicola for delivering me a 4 week turnaround for exchange and completion, I know you went above and beyond and I am so grateful to you.

Kirstie was efficient in dealing with the sale of my mum's house. She helped the sale to go through smoothly. My brother and I felt welcomed on the occasions we went into the Sherborne offices.

I wanted the best, and that is exactly what I got. Outstanding service, efficient with expert knowledge which enabled them to deal with any hurdle that came their way. I was nervous in selling, but putting it in the hands in a quality solicitor took all that away. I am so grateful to Michelle and everyone at Porter Dodson and would not hesitate to recommend.
