My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, yet the agent informed us that the owners will only proceed if we use their chosen lawyers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Niton

It is highly unlikely the vendors are behind this. Should the owner require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is not the way to achieve this. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to use your own,trusted Niton conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthose that will earn their negotiator at the agency a commission or hit his conveyancing thresholds demanded by corporate headquarters.

My conveyancing in Niton completes this Friday, yet the vendors I am buying off wishes to move out 24 hours later at midday. Can I accept this?

If you require a bank loan then your conveyancer will insist that you have vacant possession on Friday - the mortgage company will require it.
