My husband and I are new on the property ladder - had an offer accepted, yet the estate agent advised that the seller will only proceed if we use their preferred conveyancers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor used to conveyancing in Bickley

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this ultimatum. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to appoint your preferred Bickley conveyancing solicitors - as opposed tothose that will give their negotiator at the agency a commission or achieve conveyancing targets set by head office.
