Success of First-Time Buyer Campaign Leads to Permanent Conveyancing Discount

Published In: Residential Conveyancing, Switalskis News

Buying a first home is an exciting milestone, but it can also be one of life’s most challenging financial commitments. From saving for a deposit, to covering moving costs, surveys and mortgage fees, first-time buyers often face significant expenses before they even receive the keys to their new home.

That’s why our conveyancing team are delighted to announce that our first-time buyer 20% discount on standard conveyancing legal fees is now part of our permanent offering!

Making legal support more accessible

Originally introduced as a limited-time promotion during April and May, the initiative proved extremely popular with clients looking for expert legal support that goes further. Following this positive response, we have decided to make the discount a permanent part of our conveyancing service.

At Switalskis, we believe access to quality legal advice should never stand in the way of homeownership. Our conveyancing team is committed to guiding clients through every stage of the buying process, providing clear advice, proactive communication and the reassurance that comes from experienced legal support.

By extending this discount indefinitely, we hope to make the journey onto the property ladder a little more affordable for those taking their first step into homeownership.

Whether buying a city-centre apartment, a family home or a new-build property, our experienced conveyancing solicitors are here to help make the process as smooth and straightforward as possible.

Our commitment to first-time buyers

We understand that when it comes to buying a first home, every penny counts. Rising costs, deposit requirements and associated moving costs can make it difficult for people to take their first step on the property ladder.

Making this discount permanent is part of our wider mission to supporting people for the world we live in today. For many aspiring homeowners, getting onto the property ladder is more challenging than ever, with rising costs, changing market conditions and greater financial pressures creating additional barriers along the way. We believe people from all backgrounds should have access to clear, expert legal support when making one of life's biggest investments, and this initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to helping first-time buyers navigate an increasingly complex home-buying journey with confidence.

If you’re buying your first home, you’ve probably come across the term stamp duty early in the process. It’s one of the most significant upfront costs to budget for, yet it’s often misunderstood. Understand what it is, how much you might pay and what relief is available to first-time buyers.
