Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Cheadle Hulme

I am progressing with the sale of my maisonette in Cheadle Hulme and the EA has just telephoned to warn that the buyers are swapping conveyancer. The excuse is that the mortgage company will only deal with solicitors on their conveyancing panel. Why would a major lender only engage with certain solicitors rather the firm that they want to choose to handle their conveyancing in Cheadle Hulme ?

Lenders have always had panels of law firms they are content to work with, but in the past few years big names such as HSBC, have reviewed and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have represented them for many years.

Mortgage companies point to the increase in fraud by way of justification for the cull – criteria have been stiffened as a smaller panel is easier to keep an eye on. No lender will say how many solicitors have been dropped, claiming the information is commercially sensitive, but the Law Society says it is being contacted daily by practices that have been removed from panels. Some do not even realise they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. The purchasers are not going to have any impact on this.

Me and my partner are soon to exchange on the purchase of a house in Cheadle Hulme but as a result of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree compensation from the owner in the sum of £3k in the form of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of amending the contract but Yorkshire BS are not allowing this. Why were they approached?

The conveyancing practitioner that is on a Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel is duty bound to disclose to Yorkshire BS of any changes to the sale price. If you prohibit your property lawyer to notify the reduction to Yorkshire BS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Yorkshire BS and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Cheadle Hulme.
