Sarah Brimilcombe

Senior Paralegal

Sarah has practised in social housing for over 20 years, focussing on shared ownerships leases and transactions. Taking great care to guide clients through the process from their initial instruction through to completion of the matter. Sarah enjoys meeting new clients and helping them with: - shared ownership plot sales and purchases - intermediate and final staircasing - consents to assign - individual sales and purchases Sarah has established a niche area acting for buyers and sellers of shared ownership properties and is recognised by several of the large Housing Associations in the South West for her skills. Sarah has a deep understanding of the legal and procedural requirements of shared ownership transactions and ensures the transactions go through smoothly and efficiently. Sarah is able to apply a breadth of experience and strong working relationships with many registered providers, where Tozers are “approved solicitors” for many panels for shared ownership, including that of Help to Buy South West to her client relationships. This enables her to understand what is required from the Housing Provider, building developer and her clients. As a result of her reputation Sarah is regularly recommended by Housing Association clients to their buyers of shared ownership leases to ensure the sales go through smoothly. Sarah receives a significant amount of repeat custom, as previous clients return to either purchase further shares or sell. She receives this repeat custom due to her approach – recognising that a property transaction is a key milestone in your life and placing a genuine importance on responding to queries quickly and clearly.

Breath of fresh air.

5

Sarah was fantastic throughout our entire process. She consistently kept me updated during every step and always responded, no matter how minor my question. Initially, when searching for solicitors, we felt judged because of our age, which was evident in the emails we received. However, Sarah treated us with both professionalism and understanding. As first-time buyers, she made us feel comfortable, which allowed us to easily grasp everything. Tozers offers excellent value, and we would definitely use them again.

Excellent Service for Shared Ownership Purchase

5

I recently used Tozers for my shared ownership house purchase, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer my questions.

The process can be quite complex, but they explained everything clearly, kept me updated at every stage, and ensured everything went smoothly. Their attention to detail and efficiency made the experience stress-free.

I highly recommend Sarah and Jericha to anyone purchasing a shared ownership property – their expertise and customer service are outstanding!

Fantastic service from Jericha at Tozers for our first time shared ownership purchase. We were kept fully informed throughout, and received a professional, responsive, friendly and efficient service. Couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you!

Absolutely brilliant. Sarah Brimilcombe is Ace and you couldn’t ask for anyone better. I thoroughly recommend using Tozers. She’s easy to contact, she relays all information clearly and in an effective manner. At no point has she left me wondering what’s going on - which has been the case with other solicitor firms. I’m very happy with the service I have been provided.
