Recent client successes
- Acted for a buyer whose new property had a non-compliant septic tank requiring £12,000 of works. Kim negotiated with the seller to split the cost, coordinating with all parties to resolve the issue efficiently and fairly.
- Resolved a boundary issue for a buyer when a neighbouring takeaway claimed rights over an access way included in the property. Kim negotiated a practical division of the land and worked with the lender to ensure the mortgage was unaffected, keeping the purchase on track.
- Acted for the buyer of a property being sold by executors where the late owner had built a garage on neighbouring land. Kim obtained statements of truth, secured possessory title and arranged indemnity insurance to provide the buyer with full rights of access and ownership, ensuring the property and garage could be safely transferred.
"We had a really great experience working with LCF for our recent sale and purchase. Kim Rice was our main point of contact and we found her very easy to get hold of and really responsive whenever we contacted her. She did a brilliant job of navigating the process for us and we felt like we were in safe hands throughout. She made a stressful time a little less stressful, thanks so much Kim!"
Her combination of long-standing experience, practical problem-solving and approachable style makes Kim a trusted adviser for clients navigating property transactions.
