The vendors have offered on a property, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have instructed a high street conveyancing solicitor in Treharris. What should be my next step? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Principality?

It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (mortgage application is approx £1k, then survey, Treharris conveyancing search fees, etc).

In a rising market some buyers will apply for the mortgage with Principality and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their solicitor to press on with the conveyancing in Treharris.

Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my 2 bed apartment in Treharris. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, however I have recently received a yearly maintenance charge invoice – Do I pay up?

It best that you clear the invoice as normal as all ground rent and service payments will be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
