The developer are pushing us to use their “independent” recommended solicitor but I feel a little bit sceptical. Is it better to find our own solicitor or use their one?
Are houses built already and being used? Ask people who they used. Might be a residents association too, ask them.

Thanks all. After two years of looking, failing to find anything suitable within our budget, being rejected and outbid, it all seems to be moving scarily fast!
Howard, that's also a good suggestion. It's a pretty small development and only a few properties have been occupied so far, however we viewed a finished house that was identical to the one we just reserved and I know that a couple moved in the day after we saw it... If I get a moment I might put a postcard through their letterbox saying hello.

Solicitor question... we just got an offer accepted on a new build property but we don’t have a solicitor lined up. The developer are pushing us to use their “independent” recommended solicitor but I feel a little bit sceptical. Is it better to find our own solicitor or use their one?
