For most people, the process of selling their property starts way before they even think about contacting a solicitor. Usually, when client’s contact us, we will ask ‘Have you got a buyer yet’? If not, we will quite often advise them to contact us when a buyer is found. We typically do not have much to do with a property until a buyer is found. However, this approach is set to change.
