I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Whitnash. I have a mortgage agreed with Kent Reliance. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?

My offer on a detached house in Whitnash has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on on an apartment, however it’s not yet tied up, and have viewings of other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a high street conveyancing solicitor in Whitnash.

It is usual to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Whitnash conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you must check that your property lawyer is on the TSB approved list. Regarding the subsequent steps this very much depends on the uniqueness of your case, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. During a hot market some home buyers would apply for a home loan with TSB and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their solicitor to proceed with the conveyancing in Whitnash.
