From a stone terrace in Hoyland to a farmhouse out past Penistone, we handle Barnsley moves online, with a named conveyancer and updates on WhatsApp.
Real people, updates on WhatsApp
Every stage of your move, with real dates. Check in whenever you like, even at 2am.
Your conveyancer's name and face, not a case number. Usually replies within 2 hours.
No logging in to find out what's happening. We tell you, as it happens.
Scan your passport and take a quick selfie in the Thirdfort app. Forms are signed online, so there's no printing and no post.
A small payment to start, the rest on completion. Every penny itemised.
Sale fallen through, and not your fault? You get a second go, even on a different property.

You'll know who's looking after your move from the first day. There's no office to visit and no forms to post, and you'll hear from us as soon as anything changes.
The local authority search goes to Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council, and Yorkshire Water handles the water and drainage search.
Barnsley grew up on coal, with pits right across the borough, so a coal mining search is part of nearly every purchase. It shows any old workings or mine entries close to the property and any past subsidence claims. Our guide to conveyancing searches explains what to expect.
Older homes can throw up surprises. Our guide to when something goes wrong explains how the usual problems get sorted.
