    If you are buying or selling a property in Scotland, you will need legal support to complete your sale or purchase.

    When dealing with property, it is never too early to get legal advice. If you are looking for a new home, you need to be prepared and in a position to move quickly to make an offer when you find the house of your dreams. And if you are a seller, you need arrangements in place ready to handle potential offers and property negotiations.

    As a solicitor estate agency, we can provide you with legal services as well as our comprehensive estate agency services, supporting you through the whole of your property transaction – from putting your house on the market or making an offer through to completing the necessary legal contracts.

    Our teams of experienced Solicitors and support staff work closely with our estate agency teams across all of our offices to provide a seamless and cost-effective property package for clients. With our thorough knowledge of the property market and legal conveyancing expertise, we can spot and avoid potential pitfalls and problems quickly, making finalising the documentation for you as smooth and speedy as possible.

    We can also help if your property transaction involves selling property in England and buying in Scotland or vice versa, as we have Solicitors qualified in both English and Scottish Law. Such cross-border expertise ensures the process is as hassle-free and easy as possible for you.

    Throughout your property buying or selling, we are on hand to help. We will keep you informed during the whole process, giving you regular updates on developments to ensure you are always kept in the picture.

    I used Thorntons to sell and buy a house. Helen was absolutely brilliant- very knowledgeable and moved things along at a good rate. She was always there to answer questions even if I asked stupid ones! Nothing seemed to be too much trouble and communication was excellent. We were emailed or phoned every step of the way both with the sale and purchase. What could have been an extremely stressful time was made so much easier by Helen being there to support and explain. I would highly recommend using Thorntons to buy or sell a house.
