We're new to the buying process - agreed a price, yet the estate agent has warned us that the owners will only move forward if we appoint the agent's chosen lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a local solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Shenley Church End
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this ultimatum. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Contact the owners directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Shenley Church End conveyancing firm - not the ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing figures demanded by HQ.
Why can't I complete our conveyancing in Shenley Church End on May bank holiday?
Because on completion the funds needs to pass between the banks of the purchaser and owner’s conveyancer and currently this can only take place on a working day. So you can't complete on a saturday or sunday either.
