Yes - assuming the solicitor is one you've chosen independently (ie not recommended by a new build company etc).
Definitely - I've had experience with them before - they suck but at least they have a web portal so I can do things remotely. And excellent shout @stevo_com - I literally earlier on this afternoon noticed 9 outstanding tasks on my sale which I'd not noticed because I'd been looking at the buy page. Thanks @aggi.
I did end up picking up a Warner Flat for £360k, only £10k over budget. Funny how things work out. Needs a lot of work but the structural survey says it's OK so I better put my back into it!
We just accepted an offer on our flat. £300k - we bought it for £190k four years ago - how can anyone keep up with that? It's insane.
I'm planning to use the same firm of solicitors to sell our place as buy the new one - that seem sensible to everyone?
