Great Service

Carole was quick and efficient to book me with Ashley who rang and advised me on what to expect. After I sent my letter to Ashley, she rang again and explained what every clause meant. The matter was completed with time to spare.
I highly recommend Hegarty Peterborough.

Flat Purchase

I have just recently purchased a flat through Hegarty's in Stamford. The service that I have received right through from the friendly staff on reception, to my solicitor was excellent. Rose and Emily were always on hand to answer any of my questions via telephone and email. Their work was both professional and efficient, resulting in my purchase taking only four months. This is despite the first month being a busy time for them due to changes in stamp duty legislation. I would thoroughly recommend Hegarty's and Rose for property purchases. Thomas Rowe.
