After what feels like an age I have had an offer on a flat in Redruth accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on somewhere, but it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have instructed a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Redruth. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Coventry BS going?
It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Redruth conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to check that your conveyancer is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Regarding the next steps this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. During a hot market many buyers will apply for a home loan with Coventry BS and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their conveyancing practitioner to press on with searches.
