    HASTINGS LEGAL ARE SOLICITORS & ESTATE AGENTS

     When you use our integrated estate agency and conveyancing service we also act as your solicitors in the transaction. This means that property marketing and legals communicate directly with each other.

    While the property team are busy organising photographs and preparing schedules the legal team check titles at an earlier stage than would happen when selling with an ordinary estate agent. This allows the conveyancing to click in to gear smoothly when an offer is received.

    TELL US THE BIGGER PICTURE

    If you are buying another property in Scotland we can also handle your purchase conveyancing and make sure the money from the sale is ready in the bank to pay for your new home. As solicitor estate agents we gain an overview of your situation so we can give broader more informed advice and help you make wise decisions.

    This is a good time to make or revise your will. We are here for that and other important matters too.
