Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are motivated buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to appoint your own,trusted Aldeburgh conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothose that will provide their negotiator at the agency a referral fee or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by head office.

Myself and my partner have recently had an offer accepted on a flat and had meeting on Friday with Nationwide for the mortgage. They warned me that when it comes to choosing a lawyer that unless they are on their approved list of solicitors then we will be subject to an an additional charge of £250+. This is because they would then have to select a solicitor to act on their behalf in addition to the one we select on our behalf and we will be on the hook for their costs. I have asked Nationwide to supply me with a list so I can request estimates only from their approved solicitors but was told that I need to check with each individual conveyancer to see if they are on the panel. Is there a list online?

You should ask Nationwide what their criteria for panel membership is for a solicitor.Then ask the conveyancer of your choice whether they meet the criteria and have they acted on loans for Nationwide historically. Where the answer to those is yes, then just clarify this with Nationwide. Another option is to use our search facility and we may be able to locate a lawyer in Aldeburgh on the panel for Nationwide.
