My fiance and I are purchasing a newbuild flat in Harton with a homeloan from The Royal Bank of Scotland.We use our Harton conveyancing lawyer but The Royal Bank of Scotland advised that her practice is not on their approved list of firms. we are left little option but to use a The Royal Bank of Scotland panel firm or keep our high street solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that The Royal Bank of Scotland use our lawyer?

Unfortunately,no. The mortgage offered to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that lawyers must be on the The Royal Bank of Scotland approved list. Until recently, most banks had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find 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. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for The Royal Bank of Scotland

My husband and I are FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the agent has warned us that the seller will only move forward if we instruct their preferred solicitors as they need an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer used to conveyancing in Harton

We suspect that the owner is not behind this requirement. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to instruct your preferred Harton conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothose that will give their negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing figures pre-set by senior management.

I have appointed a Harton conveyancing solicitor for our home move (FTB’s) and have spotted in the terms and conditions that they are not overseen by the Financial Conduct Authority. Should I be worried or is that the norm with conveyancer?

We can't see why they should be. Most conveyancer don't lend money. They should be governed by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, who set strict conditions regulating amounts held on client account.
