You can instruct a conveyancing practitioner now requesting that they create a file on your behalf. This will enable: 1) the selling agent to send out the Sales Memorandum to the relevant parties 2) the seller’s lawyer to send out the draft contract. That being said, do not ask your lawyer to start searches until you receive your valuation report via Santander and you are happy to proceed.
