I had an offer accepted on a property in Harrow Weald on 5/2/2025, valuation was booked 4 days after, all came back fine. Property lawyer instructed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to HSBC and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?
