I have just been advised by my mortgage broker that my Cannington solicitor is not on the mortgage company Solicitor panel. How can I check?
You need to call your Cannington conveyancer. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to notify you what has happened. Where they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the conveyancing panel for your bank.
we are a couple who are hoping to buy a 2 bedroom apartment in Cannington with a loan from Skipton Building Society.We have a Cannington conveyancing solicitor but Skipton Building Society informed us her practice is not on their "panel". We have to appoint a Skipton Building Society panel solicitor or keep our preferred solicitor and fork out for a Skipton Building Society panel lawyer to act for them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Skipton Building Society use our lawyer?
Unfortunately,no. The loan offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, a common one being that solicitors needs to be on the Skipton Building Society solicitor panel. in the past, most mortgage companies 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 Skipton Building Society

I'm remortgaging my existing home to a BTL mortgage with Barclays and I will use the rest of the raised equity towards another house. The location we are talking about is Cannington. Will your solicitors be able to act for the two mortgage companies and tie in the conveyances?
