I have an AIP. The lender mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to appoint their panel lawyer as I would prefer to appoint a high street conveyancing solicitor in Eastney and Southsea?

Our offer on a semi in Eastney and Southsea has been accepted, but there is a chain. The vendors have offered on a property, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other flats booked. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Eastney and Southsea. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Kent Reliance going?
It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Eastney and Southsea conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Kent Reliance approved list. Regarding the next stages this very much dictated by the specifics of your case, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market some home buyers will apply for the mortgage with Kent Reliance and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with the conveyancing in Eastney and Southsea.
