At what point will exchange of contracts happen for sale conveyancing in Bozeat and do I need to be at the solicitors branch?
Where you are round the corner to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Bozeat you are welcome to attend to sign the paperwork. That being said, the firms we work with offer a national conveyancing service and give just as diligent and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The executing of the contract is not the critical part. A signed contract is necessary for the solicitor to officially exchange at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Bozeat)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

We are FTB’s just having agreed a price on a property in Bozeat, and are now looking to get solicitors instructed.

I am content to do everything electronically, but I assume at some point we will need to physically go into the property lawyer's office to sign documents?
The conveyancer does not need to be in Bozeat, but choosing local means that you can go in if you need to, for instance, if a signature is immediately necessary. Also, a Bozeat solicitor is likely to be familiar with local agents and (if the vendor has chosen a local solicitor) with them, which should help keep things moving faster.
