I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Pontarddulais off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Co-operative. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Co-operative, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Co-operative conveyancing panel.
My offer on a detached house in Pontarddulais has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on on an apartment, however it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other flats in the pipeline. I have instructed a high street conveyancing solicitor in Pontarddulais. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with RBS going?
It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses too early (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Pontarddulais conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you must ensure that your solicitor is on the RBS conveyancing panel. As to the subsequent stages this very much depends on the specifics of your case, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market many purchasers will apply for the mortgage with RBS and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their property lawyer to move forward with searches.

Instead, there is usually a basic requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly sending a duplicate of the sublease.
