Buying a Property

Our team of expert property lawyers will make buying property as straightforward as possible. Securing the right property lawyer is vital; we provide a highly personalised service that meets your needs and exceeds your expectations.

Whether the property you wish to buy is freehold, leasehold, new build, or any other type of property, the process can be legally complicated and stressful.  At Biscoes, we understand how stressful the process can be, so we deal with the legal transaction and paperwork in a straightforward manner avoiding legal jargon where possible.

Every client benefits from a designated lawyer to guide you through the process and oversee the transaction from the point of instruction through to completion.  We also have an internal locum who provides cover in the event your designated lawyer is unwell or on holiday to ensure there is no delay to your matter.

Crucially, we are proactive on your behalf and will communicate with your mortgage lender, estate agents, and other parties to move the transaction along as quickly as possible.

Our team works hard to ensure contracts are exchanged for you at the earliest opportunity so you can obtain the keys to your new property as soon as possible.

We will provide a full breakdown of the likely costs of the purchase at the outset.

Our experience covers:

• Buy-to-let
• Buying at auction
• Leasehold, including retirement properties
• Unregistered properties
• Rural properties and land
• High-value properties
