I am expecting a DIP from Kent Reliance this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Kent Reliance recommend any Walderslade solicitors on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?

You will need to appoint Walderslade solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Kent Reliance through the process.

Kent Reliance have agreed my mortgage in principle, my offer on a apartment in Walderslade has been accepted, what are the next steps?

Your property agent will wish to be informed of your conveyancer's details (ensure that the lawyers are on the lender’s panel). Telephone Kent Reliance or the financial adviser and finalise any outstanding documentation. Kent Reliance will sellect a valuer who will get in contact with the selling agent or vendor to arrange a slot for the valuation to take place. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes about a week for the mortgage offer to be issued. Kent Reliance will send the offer to you and your conveyancers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Walderslade.
