About to put an offer in.
Substantial deposit (30%). Independent broker recommended by friend is happy I'm good up to asking price (but don't have mortgage in principle yet, says he can get it in an hour when offer accepted). I'm on mat leave so he says he just needs to be picky about lenders as some are ok with that, and some aren't.
At what point do I need to instruct a solicitor? Presumably when/if the offer is accepted? Will I be at a disadvantage if I use an independent, rather than EA, broker/conveyancer?
I feel naive and a little bit unsure.
Going to offer on Mon, can someone talk me through when I get various professionals involved and the best way to go about it?
