My husband and I are new to the buying process - agreed a price, yet the selling agent told us that the seller will only issue a contract if we appoint their preferred lawyers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a local conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Worthing

Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are motivated purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you are going to appoint your preferred Worthing conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds demanded by HQ.
