The Government is suspending HIPS from 21st May 2010. There will be many lawyers thinking about time too.

HIPS were viewed by many as yet another tax to swell the Governments coffers without helping most ordinary people with moving house.

The downside is that many thosands of jobs may be lost as a result.

Client feedback

An excellent service from Winston’s conveyancing department. Organised, meticulous, efficient, friendly and calm - everything we could have wanted.

Really helpful when we sold our property and purchased our new home. Responsive to emails and calls.
Mr and Mrs Harrold
I was recommended by a work colleague to use Samantha at Winston’s for buying my first house. They were brilliant at communicating and replied to me so quickly! No question was too silly. Such a smooth process and I would definitely recommend. Really appreciate the help - thank you!!

Excellent. Engaged, honest and quick throughout. When they said something would be done, it was. Couldn't be happier.

I found Sidraa to be very thorough, proactively raising questions about the conveyance even before I had asked her myself. All communication was clear and regular updates provided, which was very helpful.It was a stressful process (what house move isn’t!)due to an issue dragging on, no fault on the Solicitors’ part but meant exchange and completion in quick succession! Ultimately, Sidraa and Tom worked very hard to achieve the completion date everyone wanted so thank you 🙏
