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.

Should you buy a leasehold property with a short lease?
Leasehold properties with short leases – i.e., anything less than 80 years – can sometimes be found on the market and are normally sold for much less than comparable properties with more than 80 years leases.
You may be tempted to buy such a property, but you should be aware of the following:
- you may find it very difficult to get a lender to provide you with a mortgage to buy the property or to remortgage it;
- if you don't manage to get the lease extended yourself, you may find the property very difficult to sell, and
- if the lease falls below 20 years and you've lived in your property for less than a year, you cannot take the 'formal route' to a lease extension, which means that you cannot ultimately guarantee that you'll get a lease extension
