My husband and I are purchasing a 1 bedroom apartment in Aylsham with a mortgage from Virgin Money.We like our Aylsham conveyancing solicitor but Virgin Money informed us she’s not on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct a Virgin Money panel solicitor or retain our local solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The home loan offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, a common one being that lawyers needs to be on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. Until recently, most banks had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Virgin Money

I have instructed a Aylsham solicitor having checked that they are on the Principality conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?

Principality will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Principality will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your solicitor will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Aylsham postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Principality, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Aylsham.

How does conveyancing in Aylsham differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Aylsham approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because builders in Aylsham usually purchase the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Aylsham or who has acted in the same development.
