Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Blackwell

Me and my fiance are intending to acquire a 2 bedroom flat in Blackwell with a mortgage. We have a Blackwell solicitor, however the bank says he's not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the mortgage company panel firms or keep our Blackwell property lawyer and pay for one of their panel firms to act for them. This feels very unfair; can we not demand that the bank use our Blackwell property lawyer ?

Unfortunately,no. Your mortgage offer is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms 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 Blackwell conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Blackwell. I I am struggling to find out if they are on the Leeds Building Society approved list of lawyers. Could you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?

The first thing you should do is phone your solicitor and ask them if they can act for the lender. Otherwise please get in touch with Leeds Building Society who may be able to assist.
