Property transactions are some of the biggest financial commitments you will ever make. At Howard & Co., our dedicated property team has been guiding clients in Barnsley, Penistone and the wider community since 1976. Whether you are buying your first home, re-mortgaging, or investing in commercial property, we will provide clear, timely advice and ensure every stage of the process runs as smoothly as possible.
Buying or selling a property can feel daunting, but with the right legal support it doesn’t have to be. Our conveyancing specialists handle all the legal work involved in residential transactions, keeping you informed from start to finish. We also advise landlords and investors on buy-to-let purchases, ensuring compliance with legal requirements and protecting your investment.
There are many reasons you may want to re-mortgage or transfer ownership of a property — from securing a better deal on your mortgage, to changing the names on the title deeds, or gifting property to family members. We will prepare the necessary legal documents, liaise with lenders, and ensure that the transfer is completed correctly and efficiently.
Commercial and agricultural property matters require specialist advice. We act for buyers, sellers and landlords in transactions involving shops, offices, warehouses, factories, and farmland. Whether you are buying or selling a business property, granting or taking on a lease, or dealing with agricultural land issues, we provide practical guidance to protect your interests and keep the deal moving forward.
Whether you are a landlord letting out your property or a tenant entering into an agreement, it is vital to have the right legal protections in place. We can draft and review tenancy agreements, assist with lease renewals, and act for either side in disputes such as rent arrears, property repairs or breaches of tenancy. Our goal is always to resolve issues quickly and fairly, while protecting your legal position.
