As soon as your offer is accepted, you can submit your application. An independent broker can help speed this along.4. Order your searches and surveys

When should I sort out council tax and water rates?
You should close your accounts for council tax and water rates when you exchange and you should similarly get in touch with the appropriate authorities for your new property at this point too.
Don't forget that if you're buying a freehold property, you should put in place buildings insurance to run from the point of exchange as you're then responsible for the structural integrity of your new property.
If you're buying a leasehold, the freeholder normally covers buildings insurance in a block policy which you'll contribute towards in service charges but you should ensure that this is the case.
