My fiance and I wish to acquire a newly converted apartment in Bozeat with a loan from Yorkshire Building Society.We would like to retain our Bozeat conveyancing lawyer but Yorkshire Building Society says her practice is not listed on their approved list of member firms. We have to appoint a Yorkshire Building Society panel solicitor or keep our preferred solicitor and pay for a Yorkshire Building Society panel lawyer to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; Can we not simply insist that Yorkshire Building Society use our lawyer?
No, not really. The home loan issued to you is subject to its various provisions, one of which will be that conveyancers needs to be on the Yorkshire Building Society solicitor panel. in the past, most lenders 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 Yorkshire Building Society

Local searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Bozeat.
