We suspect that the owner is not behind this requirement. Should the owner want ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated buyer is going to damage their objectives. Try to communicate with the owners directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you are going to use your preferred Tilbury conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothe ones that will earn the estate agent a kickback or meet his conveyancing thresholds pre-set by corporate headquarters.
