Residential Property

Buying or selling a new house or flat is a costly and often exciting process. It is usually the largest...

Just a quick note to reiterate my warmest thanks for organising all the transactions which resulted in a successful remortgage of my property. I am aware of how much time you spent on explanations of stuff I didn’t understand. Thank you for your patience, understanding and efficiency. In my book you can give yourselves five gold stars for navigating me through the intricacies and I wish you the very best of the future.

I want to assure you and Siobhan that I was very pleased with the excellent service we received with the sale of the above property. Although there was no chain and the buyer was a cash buyer, as attorneys, we were at risk of considerable complexities if my mother died mid process. So speed was of the essence.

I agreed an offer on the 2nd Oct. I got sale documents on the 12th Oct and Exchange and Completion was achieved on 11th Nov. Considering we are in the middle of a pandemic, the property was in Lancashire, in lockdown, my sister and I are in different counties and the property was not Land registered the speed was outstanding. Siobhan and I had to resolve some tricky boundary issues along the way and on all our discussions we came to quick and satisfactory solutions.

So thank you very much to you both.

You can be sure I will be very happy to recommend your firm to family and friends.

Shahida has been fantastic with our case. Our purchase was being handled directly through her. She was that good and helpful that when we ran into issues on our sale we cancelled the legal team and moved it directly to her. Shahida has restored our faith in the legal professional in what’s been a hectic and crazy time around stamp duty exemptions.

Shahida and team were so helpful, it made the whole process of buying my first property sooo EASY. They were quick, efficient and always kept me up to date! I will 100% use them again on my next property! Thanks again!

We have received a fantastic conveyancing service from Howell Jones for both our sale & purchase. Our solicitor Shahida has been an absolute gem for us, she’s extremely thorough and well organised. She has turned around our sale and purchase from offer to exchange in under 5 weeks and the process has been incredibly smooth. She’s kept us updated at every step of the way to make this process less stressful and for that we are very grateful. Shahida is an asset to Howell Jones and we would thoroughly recommend her to everyone.

Shahida Salim, always made sure I was kept well informed throughout the entire procedure and promptly and professionally addressed any new queries or concerns during the negotiations. I always felt in very safe and capable hands and I would certainly recommend to use this firm to anyone looking for good legal advice.

Shahida Salim and Siobhan O’Connor acted on our behalf for our property sale and purchase. We were extremely happy with the way in which they dealt with the whole process and the level of communication throughout was excellent. I would highly recommend Howell Jones Solicitors, I have genuinely never received such excellent service.

We have just completed a sale of one house and a purchase of another house, in different parts of the country. Working with Ms Shahida Salim and her assistant Georgie Burkill from Howell Jones has been a pleasure throughout. They respond very quickly to all inquiries, are factual, accurate and very efficient. They took the time to explain any issues and were unfailingly pleasant and helpful to deal with in what I know was a very stressful time for all solicitors due to the intense pressure of the 2021 stamp duty holiday.

Shahida has been a very helpful solicitor, guiding us through the complications of a house sale when we did not have probate in place following an inheritance. Excellent, and good value service all round! Thank you!
