After what feels like an age I have had an offer on a maisonette in Chandlers Ford agreed to, but there is a chain. The vendors have placed an offer on a property, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have selected a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Chandlers Ford. What should be my next step? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Barclays?
It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Chandlers Ford conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Barclays conveyancing panel. As to the next phase this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market many buyers will apply for a home loan with Barclays and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their solicitor to move forward with searches.
