we are a couple who are buying a newly converted apartment in Cheddar with a homeloan from Bank of Ireland.We use our Cheddar conveyancing lawyer but Bank of Ireland informed us she’s not listed on their approved list of firms. It seems we are left with little choice but to instruct a Bank of Ireland panel lawyer or retain our preferred solicitor and pay for a Bank of Ireland panel lawyer to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The home loan offered to you is subject to its various provisions, one of which will be that solicitors needs to be on the Bank of Ireland 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. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Bank of Ireland

I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Skipton are being a right pain. The Cheddar solicitor who is on the Skipton conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Skipton are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Skipton have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Skipton have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Skipton may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
