Love it when my clients give me 5* reviews 😁 Some of you may know I like rounds numbers - I'm just on the edge of 200 reviews with 199. Anyone want to make my day and add a review https://www.vouchedfor.co.uk/mortgage-advisor/swindon/023689-suzanne-gore/write-review

If you are buying a home, your conveyancer will check that you are not taking on any unexpected legal problems which could affect your use or ownership of the property or which could cause problems when you come to sell it. We will investigate potential legal pitfalls and will also provide you with useful and practical legal information relating to your new property.

If you are selling, we will put together all the necessary legal information and answer all the questions raised by the other Solicitors. We will also deal with the repayment of any mortgages secured on the property.

Don't panic, but be aware!
- As I am sure many of you have read or heard there are lots of changes in the mortgage market at the moment.
- Whilst it's true a great deal of mortgage rates have been withdrawn in the past 48 hours, there are still deals available. In particular for existing mortgage customers who are coming to the end of their mortgage deals shortly, and this isn't always reported correctly in the national news.
- I have worked in financial services for over 30 years and have seen a great deal of tricky times, but like all other times this will pass.
