Clough & Willis Solicitors, Commercial and private legal services UK

Property Sales and Purchases

For most of us buying a house is still the most important purchase we will ever make. At Clough & Willis we recognise the importance of ensuring the transaction progresses as smoothly and as efficiently as possible.

We understand that for most people, buying a new home or selling an existing home can be one of the most stressful times of your life. We also understand the importance of communicating with everyone involved in the process, the importance of acting as quickly as possible so that there are no delays and, most importantly, in providing a value for money service.

Our friendly and approachable team of Conveyancing Solicitors give uncomplicated advice and simple guidance through the necessary paperwork.

The same qualified and experienced Solicitor will work with you throughout your transaction to ensure that you know who to contact should you require assistance at any time.

We are able to advise you in all areas of residential Conveyancing including sales, purchases, remortgages and general property advice for both freehold and leasehold properties.

We understand that buying a house is daunting and can often be complicated and confusing. At Clough & Willis we aim to simplify matters to ensure that you understand what is happening at every stage of the transaction.

Our experienced conveyancing solicitors will carry out the transaction on your behalf and will explain each stage to you without using complicated legal jargon.

We realise how stressful moving home can be for you. We strive to provide an expert and efficient service and our whole approach is focused upon minimizing the stress in buying and selling your home. We are here to guide you along every step of the way, whether you are a first time buyer or an experienced home mover

We understand that quotes for conveyancing work can be varied due to hidden 'extras' which are often included but not made clear at the start of a transaction. That is why we provide a simple quote for the work at the outset. We do not charge more for Leasehold properties, nor do we charge for repaying your Mortgage or sending your money to you.

If you are considering buying or selling a home, speak to our conveyancing team before you do anything.

We have been using Clough & Willis for ten years and found them to be very efficient in all aspects of their work. What I like about their firm is that they cover a wide variety of legal services and are very quick to respond to our needs.

From first contact to the last, everyone has been very professional and reassuring through what has been an emotional and stressful time for us and without the help of your company it would have been much more difficult for me and my husband.

I was very impressed with your firm at the outset when I first called in November 2009 after my uncles death. All staff from the receptionist and secretary through to the Partners were professional, friendly and helpful and provided the best response out of the 3 Bury firms I called.

Lorraine, I would just like to say "thank you very much" for all your hard work and assistance in the letting of the above property. The negotiations were somewhat protracted, due to a breakdown on my client's side, and I feel that your persistence and hard work led to the eventual lease completion. I look forward to working with you in the near future. Kind regards, Neil Higson, for and on behalf of Nolan Redshaw Ltd
