House Sale

We have never experienced a firm of solcitors that can produce a service like Freers, Askew & Bunting Solicitors, they are quite simply at the top of their game. The staff involved with us during our property sale, giving special mention to Lynne Robinson, were exceptional. Their dedication, customer approach, and their can do attitude made them an absolute pleasure to deal with, and they always got the job done. Having a conveyancing firm like Freers, Askew & Bunting looking after your interests just gave us piece of mind. They also provide you with the confidence that they can react professionally, ensuring a positive outcome to any given situation. Thank you.

Absolutely brilliant!

I have had such a positive experience with Lynne, Laura and Isobel! They're all so very knowledgeable, easy to talk to and kept me up to date with the progress of buying our first house. I was having a really stressful time with the seller of the house nearing the end of the house buying process and I really felt like this team pulled off the impossible for me. I am really truly grateful. I have been singing your praises to everyone and anyone the last couple of days, even if it's of no relevance to them! Forever thankful, a massive weight off of my shoulders.

Superb service throughout

This was the first sale of a house I had completed and did not know where to start. This can be a stressful time for many I would imagine. I Called and booked an appointment with Lynne and after a sit down and discussion I knew I had nothing to worry about. Everything about the process was explained, if I needed help with some of the paperwork, which I did, any questions about what happens next etc Lynne, Laura or Isobel where only a phone call or email away to help me through it. I received regular updates regarding matters in hand and Nothing but honesty from the get go, no false promises, just told us how it was. The Sale completed successfully and would most definitely use Lynne and her team again. I would also highly recommend to anyone else.

Thanks

As solicitors acting on our behalf they were patient and fully understood how bamboozled and confusing it was to not only sell a house but having to deal with the death of my mother as well. Katie did a marvelous job and my thanks go to her.

A representative from Freers Askew Bunting Solicitors Limited responded to this review on 10 February, 2025:

Hi Andrew. Thank you for sharing your experience. We understand how challenging it can be to navigate both a house sale and the loss of a loved one, and we’re glad Katie was able to provide the patience and support you needed during this difficult time. Your kind words mean a lot, and we truly appreciate your trust in us.

Diane communicated excellently with me throughout the process, and made me feel at ease, explaining things and being thorough within the process. Thanks again Diane, and I'd highly recommend Freers Askew and Bunting Solicitors.

Couldn’t recommend June Shires & Aimee Mcallister at Freers Askew Bunting more. They have been nothing short of Amazing from start to finish dealing with a particularly difficult solicitor / firm in what should have been a relatively simple chain. But we got there in the end, all thanks to the work of June & Aimee. Great communication all the way. This is the second time I’ve used FAB for a sale & purchase and I’d have no hesitation using them again. Thank you!
