It's probably the re-application for a mortgage that causes the issue here isn't it? We had to do it, ended up with a slightly different rate, bit of ballache and I can see how it may not even be worth it for £1k.
I would try to arrange personally with the seller some kind of escrow arrangement, there must be an escrow provider somewhere that can handle this kind of situation.
Unless for some reason it's illegal, I would try to avoid involving my solicitor in this, they won't simplify the situation for you.
