Guest Walker is a leading and established firm of solicitors based in York specialising in commercial and residential property law and life planning. We are delighted to announce that Rowena Rogers has been appointed to our board of directors along with a number of other senior appointments. We have recently assisted Andrew in the acquisition of a lease for 3 Church Street, York which he has turned in to the ice cream shop, Loopy Scoops.
Something you never see on a solicitors' homepage is a reference to fees - until now that is. Many many thanks Vicky for your patience with me during this recent purchase and my most unfortunate simultaneous illness. Please do not underestimate how much your calm demeanour and common sense helped navigate me through the process.

Buying property as an investment requires expert legal advice, whether it's a large building with a number of commercial tenants already in place or a single residential buy-to-let property where tenants have been found but haven't yet moved in.
Landlords now have to comply with a whole range of legislation and, in addition to the usual legal searches and checks etc, such matters as asbestos reports, Energy Performance Certificates, Value Added Tax (VAT) and Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) may well need to be addressed -not to mention planning permission and statutory regulations which govern, for example, the use of residential properties as Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs).

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
I recently bought a house using Guest Walker for conveyancing. The whole process went extremely smoothly. Vicky communicated frequently and very effectively dealing with everything very quickly as required. I would wholeheartedly recommend Guest Walker, I couldn't be happier with the service I received.

Very professional and a personal touch. We have used Guest Walker Solicitors a number of times now and had the pleasure of having the same people look after us each time. We will certainly be using them again (hopefully in the near future). They have been the driving force behind all of our purchases, going above and beyond to make sure everything went to plan.

I have been using Guest Walker for 25 years now. I love them. Friendly helpful service at a very fair price. I never feel overcharged, and the service is very helpful, proactive and supportive. They do as much work as they can without keep asking me to do this that and the other. Just what I feel I am paying for. I recommend Guest Walker to all my friends and wish them well.
