Me and my partner are due to exchange buying a property in Great Stanmore but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the current proprietors in the sum of three thousand pounds by way of a deduction in the price.

In addition, Kent Reliance and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Great Stanmore.
