Although Asha was very pleasant throughout, I was not impressed that the whole process took over 6 months despite having first time buyers and me being prepared to go into rented, the completion date was only achieved after a lot of badgering to ensure it was done prior to the change in stamp duty
A representative from Barcan+Kirby LLP responded to this review on 22 May, 2025:
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re sorry that the process took a little longer than expected, this was due to circumstances beyond our control. Please contact your solicitor directly if you have any further queries

Asha was fantastic. We just got our keys and are very pleased. She made the process easy & pain free. Took us just under 16 weeks to complete, but I was sometimes slow to get back to her with paperwork.
She, on the other hand was swift & efficient. I would recommend her services to anyone in need of them.
Happy first time home owners

I was recommended Barcan + Kirby by our estate agents, Lisa Costa, in Thornbury. Jenny, Becky and Lisa were very swift in everything, and pleasant to deal with. From having my offer accepted on the house in January I got the keys in May so it was great. In total contrast to what people told me about buying a house it was quick and pleasant. Thanks very much!
A representative from Barcan+Kirby LLP responded to this review on 06 June, 2025:
Thanks so much for your feedback, Emily. We hope you're settling in well in your new property!
