We selected a high street solicitor for my conveyancing in Hightown yesterday. After carefully reading the official terms of business I notewe are responsible for costs even if our purchase aborts. Should I ditch them and use a web based firm who offer no completion no charge conveyancing in Hightown?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be higher to cover those conveyances that fail to complete. You should be mindful that such arrangements tend not to protect you from disbursements e.g. Hightown conveyancing search fees.
We wish to acquire a newbuild flat in Hightown with a homeloan from National Westminster Bank.We would like to retain our Hightown conveyancing practitioner but National Westminster Bank advised that she’s not listed on their "panel". we are left little option but to use a National Westminster Bank panel firm or retain our local solicitor and pay for a National Westminster Bank panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The home loan issued to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that solicitors will be on the National Westminster Bank approved list. in the past, most lenders 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. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for National Westminster Bank

I was advised by a number of selling agents in Hightown to choose a conveyancer using your seach tool. Is there a financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your site ahead of a competitor’s?
We refuse to offer any financial incentive for pointing buyers and sellers our way. We thought it would be too underhand a fee as members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
