How can a residential property solicitor help?
We offer a full range of residential conveyancing services and maintain excellent links with other South Coast property professionals including estate agents, builders, and developers.
So if you are buying or selling any type of residential property, we can help. If your purchase of a new property depends on the sale of a current property, we can help.
When you are buying property directly from a developer, thanks to our specific expertise in new-build developments, we can help. And if you are buying or selling the property at auction, we can also help.
Our experienced team can help current leaseholders negotiate and complete the purchase of their property’s freehold, either individually or as a group. Alternatively, we can help you extend the length of your leasehold term, adding value to your home or future-proofing your investment.
We can help if you are interested in joint-ownership of a property – our experts are well-versed in specialist co-ownership conveyancing and liaising with multiple lenders, and experienced in drawing up deeds that will protect your interests, a declaration of trust, for example, to establish and clarify each co-owner’s legal and financial responsibilities.

Client Testimonials
Excellent service again – even better than last time. I was particularly impressed and grateful for the very speedy email communications; they were always prompt but also importantly, they were succinct. I was also pleased at the help given in distilling the important considerations and that Nick identified a major issue with the title very early on in the process.
Mike SmithWe just wanted to take the time as well to say a personal thanks to the pair of you for your excellent service and support during our move. We had used you before but, like many people, we were tempted to go this time with one of the low cost on line conveyancing quotes we received. Had we done so we are now sure we would have regretted it as we feel that the exemplary service we got from yourselves was true value for money. In particular, towards the end of the process when we had to deal with a very demanding buyer for our house we felt very well supported by you not just in the technical elements of your service but also in the responsiveness and personal support we received. We have heard numerous stories from friends and colleagues of how they have struggled with conveyancing services during property transactions and have enjoyed telling people what a positive experience we had with George Ide.
Jeremy & Nicky MillsFor the sale and purchase of our properties we found the service we received throughout the conveyance to be exemplary. A clear, efficient and professional service from Nicholas Smith and his team.
I would look no further for any future property conveyance and as a result of this experience with George Ide I will consider them, first and foremost, for future legal matters.
Ian & Susan ArcherNicholas Smith was highly professional, focused and responsive. He worked to a very tight timetable to
complete the purchase of our house and I would strongly recommend him to prospective clients
An outstanding week – thanks for the speed and efficiency on the two deals you’ve acted on. I just wish all solicitors were as proactive as you.
It doesn’t get much better than this.
Thank you so much Nicholas for the brilliant service you have given is throughout the selling and buying of our properties. You, and Maddie, have been exceptional.
Mr and Mrs HolderMany thanks again for your work and support on the sale of my flat in Putney – as per my previous experiences on sale/purchasing properties with your help, you give conveyancing lawyers a good name! Very efficient, prompt and pragmatic plus you know what to advise/caution me on without overdoing it. After the dust has settled I will be looking for an investment property to buy so no doubt will be back in touch in due course. Enjoy the rest of the summer and thanks again.
Katherine Marshall“Just a very quick, but nonetheless very sincere and heart-felt thanks on behalf of J and myself for your highly professional and sympathetic help in the house sale/purchase saga – you certainly saved our respective sanities on several occasions when your wise words proved to be the right course of action.”
Mr T
Nick, Sally, Maddie & Lara, I just wanted to thank you for the excellent service that you all provided in the recent sale and purchase of our home. You made a stressful process a great deal easier, with your prompt responses, ready availability and sound advice. We are very grateful and would recommend you to others. I will complete your feedback form, but just wanted to email my thanks to you directly. Best regards
Richard ClayThank you very much for facilitating the sale of my house in Solva despite all the difficulties of me being in Portugal at the start, and the tardiness of the other solicitors.
It is great that all is completed and I am grateful for your cheerful help.

See ReviewMaddie was brilliant in the way she handled everything. She’s a gem. I know it’s been a very rough ride, we can’t say thank you enough.
Sarah & David GomezYou have been a pleasure to deal with and have been so competent, patient, organised and professional. I still cannot believe how stress-free the whole procedure was with you. In stark contrast, I completed today on my house in N Ireland after five (!) months of legal wrangling. I am delighted with the house and, although still surrounded by packing boxes, am making progress. Once again. Thank you for all you did. Kind regards,
