I am selling my apartment in Flint Mountain. Does the property lawyer have to be on the TSB conveyancing panel in order to deal with the discharge of my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the TSB conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their conditions fairly frequently at the moment.

We're FTB’s - agreed a price, but the estate agent has warned us that the owners will only issue a contract if we instruct their recommended solicitors as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a local solicitor used to conveyancing in Flint Mountain
It is improbable the owners are behind this. If they require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is counter productive. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to instruct your preferred Flint Mountain conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing figures pre-set by HQ.
