Residential Conveyancing

Use our free conveyancing fee calculator to work out the cost of buying or selling your home.

Buying or selling a house is said to be one of the most stressful activities you can undertake. The emotional investment, as well as the financial, can be enormous. Helping clients to buy and sell their homes as smoothly as possible has always been an important part of the service we offer.

We have no interest in providing a call centre service where a different person deals with clients every time they call and no one seems to get a grip of, or take responsibility for, the matter.

We strongly believe clients want individual and easy access to a conveyancer either by telephone, email or face-to-face. Clients understandably want good advice from a friendly expert.

For us, our relationship with our clients is at the core of our business. Through our committed team, we deliver a service that is genuinely responsive to their needs.

Conveyancing is not always problem-free, but our hands-on and individual approach means if there are complications, they can be dealt with effectively by an experienced conveyancer.

Burnetts’ reputation is based on these values of personal service and expertise. Whilst we may be flexible in every other way, on this, we are fixed.

From our offices in Carlisle, Cockermouth, and Penrith, we deliver a direct residential conveyancing solicitor service throughout England and Wales including:

Personal and pro-active representation
Fixed fee and conveyancing charge proposals in advance
No hidden extras or commissions
Transaction monitoring

We are also able to assist in the purchase of buy-to-let properties, new build properties, transfer of equity and re-mortgages together with equity release mortgages.

For advice on any aspect of your property transaction please contact a member of our team who will be happy to assist.

Property-related dispute? Our dispute resolution team can help with any disagreements.

Thanks for all your hard work. I have bought and sold many houses over the years and you have been the best solicitor by far!
Client of Kathryn Hill
I can't believe that it has finally happened and I can't thank you enough for all that you have done for me as I know I've not been the easiest client to deal with.
Client of Diane Watson
We have heard horror stories from friends who have used other solicitors, but you have been so efficient, helpful and meticulously thorough. We would definitely recommend you.
Client of Rachael Reay
Thank you for all your work and your calm measured approach to dealing with us. Your support has been much appreciated.
Client of Kathryn Hill
Just a quick note to say thank you for everything you did on the sale of our father's property [...] we appreciated your prompt and responsive advice and felt we were in safe hands. Please also pass on our thanks to Rachael who was really helpful in the closing phases and also to Diane Watson.

Thank you for dealing with my purchase - everything went smoothly - I would definitely recommend Burnetts in the future.
Client of Diane Watson
I just wanted to thank you for making the house purchase so simple. I particularly liked the way you tagged all the documents requiring signature. It made it so easy!
Client of Rachael Reay
Thank you for all your hard work to get us moved into this house. You’re the best! We really believe that without your gentle persuasion (and sometimes a bit of a push) the whole chain would have collapsed, so a massive thank you for negotiating with all those solicitors.
Client of Kathryn Hill
Thank you Sharon, it's been a joy to work with you. I will be recommending you highly.
Client of Sharon Dunstan
