My husband and I are novice buyers - agreed a price, yet the agent told us that the owners will only issue a contract if we appoint their chosen lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Buckfastleigh and Dean
It is highly unlikely the vendors are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Contact the owners directly and make the point that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Buckfastleigh and Dean conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give the estate agent a introducer fee or meet his conveyancing targets demanded by head office.
