Once you decide who you want to use and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their details on to the selling agent.

I have finally had an offer on an apartment in Finchley agreed to, the vendors do however have a dependent purchase. The vendors have placed an offer on a property, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other flats booked. I have selected a local conveyancing solicitor in Finchley. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with Nottingham going?
It is normal to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then valuation, Finchley conveyancing search costs, etc). The first course of action is to check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Nottingham approved list. Regarding the next steps this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market some buyers will apply for a home loan with Nottingham and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their conveyancer to proceed with searches.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Finchley is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can impart?
Flying freeholds in Finchley are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Finchley you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Finchley may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the selling agent advised that the owners will only proceed if we instruct their preferred conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer who is familiar with conveyancing in Finchley
We suspect that the owner is not behind this ultimatum. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious purchaser is counter productive. Try to communicate with the owners directly and explain that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to appoint your own,trusted Finchley conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give the negotiator at the agency a commission or hit his conveyancing figures pre-set by corporate headquarters.
