I plan on buying a leasehold flat in Beddington South. My property lawyer is not listed on the bank solicitor panel. Can I still continue with my Beddington South conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the bank panel?
One must use a solicitor to complete the formalities when you take out a mortgage to purchase your home. They will carry out all the appropriate investigations on the property, ensuring that you’re registered as proprietor and ensure that all the required mortgage paperwork is in order. One could instruct a Beddington South conveyancer of your choice. However, if the conveyancing practitioner appointed is not on the mortgage company approved list additional fees will arise as separate legal representation will be required by them. Conveyancing panel applications may be submitted, so provided your solicitor has not historically sought membership they should take the chance to apply.

we are a couple who are buying a newly converted apartment in Beddington South with a residential mortgage from Virgin Money.We would like to retain our Beddington South conveyancing solicitor but Virgin Money informed us her practice is not on their approved list of member firms. we are left little option but to use a Virgin Money panel lawyer or retain our high street solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Virgin Money use our lawyer?
Unfortunately,no. The home loan offered to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that solicitors must be on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. in the past, most banks had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could find 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. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Virgin Money

Is it correct that all Beddington South CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) solicitors are on the RBS conveyancing list of approved firms?
Some major lenders now use the accreditation scheme as the kick off point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. CQS accreditation however is no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. That being said,the Council of Mortgage Lenders have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitors wishing to remain on their approved list of firms.
We are getting a further advance on our mortgage from Nottingham as we want to carry out improvements to our house in Beddington South. Are we obliged to appoint a high street Beddington South solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel to deal with the paperwork?
Nottingham would not normally require firms on their approved list of lawyers to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.
