Buying or Selling Your Home

Buying your own home can be one of the most expensive, if not the most expensive, purchases you will ever make. Whether you are buying for the first time or moving to a new home, the whole process can be both thrilling and stressful, in equal parts.

Selling a home can, likewise, for many of us, be a highly stressful life event, with huge financial consequences.

You may, of course, be both buying a new home and selling your old home at the same time. Double the stress!

Here at hpjv solicitors, we have, over many years, successfully helped thousands of clients to buy and sell their homes. Many of those clients come back to us years later when they are ready to move again, so we must be doing something right.

We provide a friendly, reliable conveyancing service for buying and selling all types of property in Cardiff, Newport, Chepstow and across South Wales. We are members of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme, reflecting the high standards of our property services.

To give you certainty over the costs involved, we offer fixed fee conveyancing for most transactions, meaning the price we quote at the outset is the price you will pay in the end, with no hidden costs.
