Provided no conflict arises this is allowable. If you are requiring mortgage finance then the lender may have a say as many mortgage companies have specific instructions concerning this. For example for Bradford & Bingley as of 20/1/2022, the requirements read as follows :

1.15- May your firm act if the person dealing with the transaction or a member of his immediate family is the borrower?

Your firm may only act if a separate fee earner or partner within the firm acts for us.
