My husband and I are new to the buying process - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent told us that the vendor will only move forward if we instruct their chosen solicitors as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Colyton

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this request. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the vendors direct and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to instruct your preferred Colyton conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give the estate agent a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing figures set by HQ.
