Our Property Team undertakes all aspects of residential and commercial property.

Residential Conveyancing

Who we are, and what we do

Not only is the decision to purchase a new home one of the most important decisions you will make, it is also most likely to be your most significant financial investment. It is therefore essential that the solicitor you instruct to act for you during this important transaction is one that you can feel completely confident in.

Kirwans Solicitors has a specialist team whose sole aim is to ensure that your property transaction proceeds as swiftly and efficiently as possible.

Having solicitors who focus solely on the residential Conveyancing process enables us to provide a competitive service that recognises the need for matters to be progressed effectively. Because of our specialist team we can provide a dedicated service that doesn’t compromise either the quality of the legal work undertaken, or our commitment to client satisfaction.

At Kirwans we have over 60 years of experience in the Conveyancing field and we know that having an active dialogue between you and your solicitor is essential. That is why we are dedicated to providing clients with the full contact details for their designated solicitor right from the start of the transaction. Whether you prefer to be contacted simply by post, by telephone or email, we will ensure that you are constantly kept up to date with the progress of your case, and if you contact our offices you will be able to speak directly with the solicitor dealing with your transaction.

One of the reasons why the Conveyancing process can be stressful is as a result of a lack of communication between all parties involved in a transaction. Each member of our Conveyancing team recognises this fact and as such will liaise with all relevant parties at every stage; be that your estate agent, your financial advisor, your lender and most importantly you.

Kirwans Conveyancing Team will:

	Provide you with a clear statement of the costs at the outset of your transaction together with a guarantee of no hidden costs. We operate on a fixed fee basis for Conveyancing work so we don’t charge separately for any letters or telephone calls we make on your behalf.
	Dedicate a specialist solicitor who will progress your case.
	Provide you with the contact details for that solicitor. Each solicitor has a dedicated assistant who will also be on hand should you require any information or assistance.
	Endeavour to take your telephone calls whenever you call in. If we cannot, then we will return your call as quickly as possible, in most cases within 2 hours of you calling.
	Provide you with a fully comprehensive and “jargon-free” legal report in respect of your purchase prior to exchanging contracts.
	Keep you informed at every step of the way as to progress and provide the best legal and practical advice.

Our commitment to client care and value for money services

Kirwans Solicitors is committed to using the most up to date technology available to enable your transaction to be progressed as quickly as possible. Our use of on-line Conveyancing facilities also means that not only can we progress cases swiftly, our legal costs are competitive.
