First Time Buyer?

FIRST TIME BUYERS – first foot on the property ladder and, possibly, your first experience of a Solicitors Office. At A H Brooks & Co we appreciate that buying your first house, whilst being one of the most exciting times of your life, can for some be extremely daunting.

 

You have found the right house and, by using A H Brooks & Co, you have found the right solicitor. We have friendly and experienced staff who are always available to give you advice and reassurance about your purchase.

 

A H Brooks & Co can support you by providing reassuring guidance throughout the purchase. We provide a friendly service where your needs are paramount. Our staff will guide you through the process with explanations on all aspects of the purchase from understanding the legal documentation to finding out what day the bins are collected!

 

No matter what your query relating to your purchase if it is important to you then it is of equal importance to us. Whilst we have handled thousands of house purchases we realise that this is a new experience for you and we take every effort to ensure that your purchase runs smoothly and you are kept up to date with timescales and costs.

 

As a first time buyer the Government has made a concession in that they will not charge for Stamp Duty on any purchase of a property valued at less than £250,000. As Stamp Duty is normally charged at 1% of the purchase price on properties between £125,000 and £250,000 if you are buying in this price range that is a substantial saving.

 

However, this concession will end on the 24th March 2012 so now is a good time to buy.

 

At A H Brooks & Co we will provide you with a full costs estimate relating to your purchase so there will be no nasty surprises and you can assess the full cost of your purchase at the outset.

 

If you are considering purchasing your first property then please give us a ring for a no obligation quotation and advice.
