Can you help - my lawyer says that breach of easement insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Whissendine conveyancing?

The right level of breach of easement indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Accord Mortgages Ltd and The Mortgage Works. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to borrowers take out such insurances.

Having read lots of house buying guides, I note that they all recommend that you should get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Whissendine solicitor - who is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. is that correct?

Nottingham will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Nottingham will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your property lawyer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend.

The owners have placed an offer on somewhere, but it’s not yet tied up, and have viewings of other flats in the pipeline. I have selected a local conveyancing solicitor in Whissendine. What should be my next step? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Skipton?

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 in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Whissendine conveyancing search costs, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Skipton conveyancing panel. Regarding the subsequent steps this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. During a hot market the majority of buyers would apply for the mortgage with Skipton and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their conveyancer to move forward with the conveyancing in Whissendine.
