We are hoping to buy a 3 bedroom flat in Crofton Park with a mortgage. We have a Crofton Park solicitor, however the mortgage company advise he's not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the bank panel conveyancing practices or retain our Crofton Park conveyancer and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel that this is unjust; can we not insist that the bank use our Crofton Park solicitor ?
Unfortunately,no. Your mortgage offer is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms 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 Crofton Park conveyancing solicitor to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.
We are due to exchange buying a property in Crofton Park but as a result of damage from some water damage at the property I have managed to agree compensation from the seller of three thousand pounds taking the form of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of a side agreement yet Nationwide will not permit this. Should they have been informed?
Any property lawyer being on the Nationwide approved list is obliged to advise Nationwide of any variations to the sale price. If you prohibit your solicitor to disclose the price change to Nationwide then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Nationwide and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Crofton Park.
