Great service dealing with a very rare last minute major complication.
Tori and Ethan and the team have been great throughout the very long and arduous process of buying our house. The whole process has taken 9 months due to delays (totally out of Talbot’s control) first with Land Registry plans and then a flood in the house from a burst pipe, causing the ceiling to collapse. Several months then passed to thoroughly dry out and then repair and redecorate the property. It’s a new build, we are cash buyers and when we first reserved it, we thought it should take about 12 weeks to complete. We eventually exchanged two weeks ago and then the unthinkable happened. 24 hours before completion, the developers phoned us to say their solicitor’s bank account had been locked so the completion funds could not be transferred to them to complete the sale. Thankfully, they are a very large company and quickly engaged another company of solicitors to work with Talbots to complete the transaction 24 hours later on the planned date. Ethan was on leave when all this was going on but Tori and the team were brilliant and pulled out all the stops to ensure we completed on time. I think this (thankfully) very rare situation was a first for them, too! They dealt superbly with the whole transaction. I’m so grateful to them and obviously highly recommend them.
