It is understandable to have anxieties where there is an associated chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Ripley conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you should ensure that your solicitor is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.
