1. Get a mortgage in principle
Know what you can afford to save wasting time on any false starts.
2. Instruct your conveyancing solicitor before you make your offer
Waiting until your offer is accepted can delay your transaction. As early as possible, inform them of any details, such as gifted deposits. An online service reduces snail mail delays and waiting for physical meetings, which can be conducted by video call.
3. Apply for your mortgage quickly
You can submit your application as soon as your offer is accepted. An independent broker can help speed this along.
4. Order your searches and surveys
Ordering these early can speed up your conveyancing process, especially if local authorities face delays. However, it is usually considered prudent to time this with the rest of your chain if a transaction falls through.
5. Get your building insurance ready
You'll need insurance from the exchange so research & compare insurance quotes, once your solicitor is instructed.
6. Paperwork (When selling)
Ensure you have your paperwork, including energy performance & FENSA certificates.
Worcestershire is a county in the West Midlands, with Worcester being its county town and a cathedral city, containing the beautiful Worcester Cathedral. The county is mainly rural, containing the Malvern Hills, which border it to the west. The Malvern Hills have been classified as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The Worcestershire Beacon, which at 425m is the highest point in the county, lies in this range.
Some parts of the county, to its north-east, are in the industrial area of the West Midlands. Major settlements include Kidderminster, Bromsgrove and Redditch (all satellite towns of Birmingham). Adjoining counties include West Midlands, Warwickshire, Gloucestershire, Staffordshire and Shropshire. Worcester is the largest populated urban area and contains the county's one university, the University of Worcester. It is also the main transport hub, offering direct railway services from Worcester Shrub Hill to London Paddington and many other major conurbations.
There are 3 motorways running through the county: the M5, the M42 and M50. Two major rivers flow through the county, the Severn and the Avon. Arguably Kidderminster Harriers is the county's most famous football team - it is non-league and one of the oldest in the country - and Worcestershire County Cricket Club's (WCCC) home ground is at New Road in Worcester. WCCC last won the county championship in the late 80s in the era of Ian Botham, Graham Dilley and Graeme Hick.
The village of Broadheath, about 6 miles (10 km) northwest of the city of Worcester, is the birthplace of the composer Edward Elgar. Worcester's Berrow's Journal has a claim to be the oldest surviving newspaper in the world, publishing started in 1709.

Does the solicitor physically visit the property being purchased?
A solicitor acting for the buyer of a property does not visit a property as part of their work as they will conduct a review of the legal documentation of the property to assess whether there are any issues with the property that will affect the buyer purchasing the property or reselling it again in future.
Usually, purchasers will use a two-professionals-attack method whereby a solicitor is initially instructed to complete a legal title check and a local RICS surveyor is employed who actually visits the property assess the defects which may affect its current value or cause issues once bought.
