Good legal advisors
People often under-estimate just how important a good property conveyancer is to the house moving process. Click on the image to see a list of those I have worked with in the past and who I heartily recommend.
Good financial advisors
A mortgage broker and a top financial planner can make or break a deal and whilst there seem to be more than half that are ‘below average’ there are surprisingly few that I have had first hand experience of and can heartily recommend.
Other buying agents
If I can’t help because I’m already working for someone with a similar brief (or conceivably just because you don’t like my style!) then here are 50+ other buying agents in London & across the country that you might consider before you make up your mind. Its vital that you have the right person helping you even if that person isn't me.
Building Surveyors
Anyone buying a property would be well advised to obtain a full building survey before exchanging contracts. I have worked with a lot of surveyors and I'm happy to recommend these if you are looking for a common sense, practical and sensibly priced survey.
Insurance
If you need buildings insurance from exchange of contracts or ongoing insurance or would like to know more about Homebuyers Insurance then there is more detail here;

‘The BBC’s favourite property expert’
It’s been 12 years since I did my first interview on the Today Program. Since then I’ve done over 700 radio & tv ‘hits’ on Radio 2 programs, You & Yours, Money Box, BBC Breakfast, PM, BBC News, Watchdog, Newsnight & across BBC local radio. Surely people must be getting bored by now?
