Sale and purchase
I recently utilised the services of GD&E for the sale of my property and the subsequent purchase of a new one. I chose GD&E based on the positive recommendations of friends who had previously used their services.
Throughout the process, I was consistently kept informed of the progress of both transactions. The solicitor handling my sale and purchase was prompt in responding to my emails and was also available for telephone conversations when necessary.
Due to personal and work-related circumstances, I required a solicitor who would proactively manage both the sale and purchase. I am confident that without the efforts of GD&E, I would not have been able to successfully sell my property or move into my new home.
As soon as I committed to using their services, GD&E provided me with all the necessary documents. They were diligent in raising any necessary inquiries and responded promptly to my queries. I always had a clear understanding of the status of both transactions, as they kept me regularly updated.
GD&E consistently demonstrated a higher level of efficiency compared to the solicitors representing the purchaser and seller in the respective transactions. When it came to the completion and exchange of contracts, GD&E excelled in ensuring that all necessary preparations were made.
I highly recommend GD&E's services to anyone seeking legal representation in property transactions.
