Review summary
Setfords is exceptionally well-rated by customers. Customers particularly appreciate service and professional, though some mention concerns about communication.
We have used Setfords on a number of occasions for selling properties. Anna Nuttall and the team made the whole process very easy. We were updated frequently and any queries we had were swiftly answered. Just a very easy and pleasant process overall.
Karen was excellent! She was super responsive and helped with any questions we had as first time buyers.
The whole experience was so smooth and speedy, would highly recommend Karen and Setfords!
Was initially disappointed that the whole starter pack needed to be printed out, signed and posted back. I did everything in 2 hours, and posted a file an inch thick the same day. Paid £1000 just to open the file.
Rang at the end of the following day to check they had received it OK, but it turns out she doesn't work Thursdays. Never received any confirmation of receipt of all of the documents.
Rang to check in a week later, turns out she didn't work Tuesday either. Was told that my case was being dropped and they cannot divulge the reasons why. I wonder how long they would have left it if I didn't call up. Still I have no correspondence to say they will no longer act for me.
Disappointed that there was no online portal, no acknowledgements or updates and absolutely devastated that I have lost another week and wasted my time with a conveyancer who can't take the job on.
I have been told my deposit will be refunded minus their ID check fees, but it's not clear how much I have lost and right now I'm still out of pocket.
I’m so grateful for the outstanding service I received from Natasha during my recent property transfer. What could have been a complicated and stressful process was made smooth and straightforward thanks to their professionalism, clear communication, and attention to detail.
They kept me fully informed at every stage, explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, and responded quickly to any questions I had. I truly felt supported throughout the entire process.
Thank you for making such a big life transition feel manageable and for going above and beyond. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your services to anyone needing a reliable and compassionate solicitor.
Carlota Payne is an excellent property lawyer, very efficient and covers every point. Carlota also explains technical and timing matters clearly and patiently. Carlota acted on my purchase during the whirlwind of completions before the SDLT change and managed every expectation and difficulty with great skill. Six stars !
