Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they understand (a)you are motivated purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to instruct your preferred Haxby conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide the estate agent a referral fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds pre-set by HQ.
