Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bovey Tracey

Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Bovey Tracey. Can you please spell out why all Bovey Tracey conveyancers are not on all mortgage company panels?

Pre- 2008 most mortgage companies displayed an approach to risk which is different from today. The financial regulator in 2010 conducted a thematic review into fraud which concluded: know the property lawyers on your panel. As a result, banks have since looked to extract more data from law firms regarding their processes and the individuals who work for them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum number of transactions. Many law practices have found themselves removed from lender panels even though they had an exemplary track record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms found it impossible meet the criteria of amount of transactions the mortgage companies set.
