My husband and I are FTB’s - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent has warned us that the owners will only proceed if we appoint the agent's preferred lawyers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street conveyancer who is familiar with conveyancing in Lickey End

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this ultimatum. If they desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Speak to the owners direct and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Lickey End conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothose that will earn the negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing thresholds pre-set by HQ.
