We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the selling agent advised that the seller will only proceed if we instruct their chosen conveyancers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Halesworth

It is improbable the vendors are driving this. If they want ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine buyer is going to damage their objectives. Contact the vendors directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to use your preferred Halesworth conveyancing firm - not the ones that will give the estate agent a introducer fee or meet his conveyancing figures demanded by HQ.
