Why buy a home in Worksop?
Worksop is a large town in Nottinghamshire bordering Sherwood Forest – of the Robin Hood legend – to the north. It serves as a commuter dormitory because of its excellent location to a number of significant urban centres, such as Sheffield and equally its motorway and rail links. It's known as the "Gateway to The Dukeries" because of four obsolete ducal principal sites south of the town, two of which, being Clumber House (now a Grade I-listed historic park and garden) and Welbeck Abbey (although it has a Grade listed house) no longer contain the original buildings they were named after.
The area is the location of the Battle of Worksop, which was in the period of the War of the Roses and the arrival of the Chesterfield Canal in 1777 and railway in 1849 led to the town's growth – as did the discovery of sizeable coal seams in the area.
Landmarks and attractions include all four of the ducal estates and buildings, Mr Straw's House, the Hodsock Priory, Creswell Crags, Worksop Priory Church, Thoresby Courtyard and Gallery and Bolsover Castle.

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.

For sellers: office copies, title plan and management information (if selling a leasehold property).

Making the right choice of solicitor is key to the whole process:
- Cheap Conveyancing
- Fast Conveyancing
- Best Conveyancing Service
Is it better if your solicitor is local?
Regardless of whether you are buying or selling, there is nothing particular to be gained by your solicitor being 'local' to you.
As a buyer, your solicitor has to examine property searches, look at your home buyers survey (if you've had one done), ensure your mortgage is in place, make enquiries about the title and protect your legal interests when buying.
As a seller, your solicitor has to prepare your contract of sale and pass on all necessary documentation tied to the sale and generally look after your interests as a seller.
None of those mentioned above jobs require your solicitor to be local, and the checking of your ID, which happens at the start of the process, can be carried out electronically highly efficiently.
If you were to visit your solicitor in person to prove your ID, for example, you might, in theory, have to pay for this by the hour (and pay for travel, taking time off work, etc.).
In contrast, if as a buyer you choose to book a home buyers survey, it is essential to employ a RICS surveyor who knows the locale as they will have seen possibly hundreds of properties in and around the area and will benefit from knowledge of things like the type and style of housing, and possible defects to look for.
