Senior Associate
"Thank you to Richard Collins who was always available with excellent, honest and clear advice."
Richard is an experienced property lawyer who has a wide range of experience in complex and high value matters. He regularly advises high net worth clients on property matters and specialises in complex new build cases, Help to Buy purchases and is the on-site solicitor for Dedman Gray Auctions.
Property transactions can be highly emotional, uncertain and difficult matters. Richard’s job is to make it as easy as possible on his clients and to ensure he is always contactable which is why he includes his direct number in all his correspondence.
Acting on behalf of two separate developers in the off plan sale of their leasehold and freehold plots which involve the sale of individual plots on notice and sales of portfolios at auction.
Acting on behalf of the new purchasers in the assignment of new build contract for an un-built leasehold development from a foreign based seller.
Acting on behalf of purchasers acquiring bridging finance for new build properties following failed completion. This involved obtaining the entirety of the title information, reporting to the purchaser on their acquisition and complying with the requirements of the bridging finance company in the space of the 10 working days granted from the failed completion to the rescission date.
Successfully applying for a first registration of an unregistered property where the existing owners had passed away and the title deeds had been lost.
Richard has recently been put forward as the preferred buyer’s solicitor for a number of new-build shared ownership leasehold developments to be purchased under the Help to Buy scheme.
"We would just like to say thank you for being so helpful and kind. You are certainly an excellent solicitor and we were lucky to have you."
Mr & Mrs Rogers, North Weald

Aimee Churchill, Surrey
Excellent, throughout the process - no question was ever a bad one. Calls returned in a timely fashion. Always offered sensible and sound advice. We would always recommend Richard.
