IfI was to acquire a freehold propertyin Exmouth mortgage fee and dispense with a survey and no conveyancing searches how much would I expect to have to pay for conveyancing in Exmouth?

Any savings you would gain would be isolated to the disbursement for searches. A lawyer still be obliged to do everything else - money laundering, communicating with your sellers lawyer, SDLT return, register the ownership etc. You might save a bit for them not having to register a mortgage but it will not be significant.

When does exchange of contracts occur in sale conveyancing in Exmouth and do I need to be at the conveyancers branch?

If you are in close proximity to our conveyancing solicitors in Exmouth you are invited in to sign documents. However, the firms we recommend offer a national conveyancing service and provide just as detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you digitally. The signing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. A signed contract is necessary for the firm to officially exchange at the suitable time, which will usually be very shortly after signing.

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to appoint their panel solicitor as I would much rather appoint a Exmouth based conveyancing firm?

Do check but the chances are that give you one of their panel lawyers where you take up the "fee-free" offer. Speak to the mortgage company and see if they make available a monetary alternative. Some banks have previously offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Exmouth.
