Robert Ellis Chartered Surveyors and Estate Agents have been operating in the West Nottingham area for the past 21 years and over this period have had sold more than 15,000 properties. We have developed strong local links with all the solicitors based in Long Eaton, Beeston and Stapleford and if buyers and sellers are looking for a solicitor we are only too pleased to recommend one of the local firms.
Unlike corporate Estate Agents we do not receive a referral fee for recommending a local solicitor but are just pleased to put buyers and sellers in touch with reputable local legal firms who will always be on the doorstep for people to meet to discuss any issues that may arise with a sale or purchase of a property.
To help our clients who are looking to buy or sell a property we have agreed a local fee scale and standard disbursements that any of the local solicitors will charge so you know exactly where you stand with what your conveyancing and moving costs will be.
If you would like Robert Ellis to ask one of the local solicitor firms to provide you with a written quotation for buying or selling a property please call one of our local branches at any time.
The fees charged by the participating legal practices are as follows although these might change from time to time.
