Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Corfe Mullen

I am not well enough to travel far from Corfe Mullen. What is the rationale as to why all Corfe Mullen conveyancing practitioners are not on all lender panels?

Lenders normally impose restrictions on either the nature or volume of conveyancing firms on their approved list of lawyers. Typical examples of such restriction(s) being that the organisation needs to have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some banks for example HSBC decided to limit the number of practices they allow to act for them. You should note that banks have no responsibility for the accuracy of service provided by any Corfe Mullen property lawyer on their panel. Increases in mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of solicitor panels a few years ago notwithstanding that there are conflicting points of view about whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Statistics published by the Land Registry exposes that thousands of conveyancing firms only carry out a couple of conveyances annually.
