After what seems like an age I have had an offer on an apartment in Droitwich Spa accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on a flat, however it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other properties booked. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Droitwich Spa.
