With the stress of moving house, applying for mortgages, and arranging removal contractors, finding a good solicitor when buying or moving house is often overlooked. However, it can be a vital step in ensuring that the process moves smoothly. However, the marketplace is saturated, and the risks of selecting a poor solicitor is high - making moving house a potential nightmare. This article provides advice and guidance on choosing a solicitor who is working for the buyer, and who has their best interests at heart.
Act Upon Recommendations
Perhaps the most effective way of choosing a solicitor is through recommendations, either from the estate agents or through friends and family. Those who have had a good experience will be glad to share the details of the solicitor with their loved ones; similarly, those who have had a terrible experience will warn others against making the same mistake.
The estate agent of the property being bought or sold may also have a list of preferred solicitors that they are happy to use. However, beware of recommendations that are driven not by service, but by the financial gain of the estate agents, who often have partnerships with certain solicitors - regardless of whether or not they are efficient at their work.
