I have finally had an offer on a flat in Frinton On Sea accepted, but there is a chain. The vendors have offered on a property, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have instructed a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Frinton On Sea. What do I do now? When do I get the mortgage application with RBS going?
It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Frinton On Sea conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to check that your lawyer is on the RBS conveyancing panel. As to the subsequent steps this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. During a hot market some buyers will apply for the mortgage with RBS and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their solicitor to press on with the conveyancing in Frinton On Sea.

New build sellers have recommended to me a solicitor and I've obtained an estimate from them. They are almost £400 cheaper than my local Frinton On Sea property lawyer. What's the catch?
Builders normally have lists of conveyancers who expedite matters and who know the builder's contract and lawyer. Plenty of developers offer an inducement to choose a preferred conveyancer for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a builder won't put forward a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the conveyancing delayed when they demand an exchange in 28 days. A counter-argument for not opting for the recommended solicitor is that they may be hesitant to fight for your interests at the risk of alienating the developer. Where you have concerns that this may be the situation you should remain with your high street Frinton On Sea property lawyer.
