I am expecting a offer of a home loan from Lloyds. I intend to employ the services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Horsford. Does the Lloyds Solicitor panel allow for Licensed Conveyancers?

We are a couple about to sign contracts for a leasehold flat in Horsford. We encountered a snag. Our mortgage offer with Aldermore expires on 26/8/2025 but the owners are suggesting a completion date of 28/8/2025. Can one prolong the mortgage expiry date?
The best person to deal with your question is your lawyer who should assess whether he or she is better off negotiating with the mortgage company, vendor’s lawyers, selling agents or indeed all parties given what has gone on in your transaction to date.

I can see plenty of here regarding conveyancing in Horsford but can you isolate your top tip for selecting the right conveyancer in Horsford
We would encourage you not to go for the lowest Horsford conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.
Is it the case that all Horsford solicitor firms on the Lloyds conveyancing panel are overseen by the SRA?
As solicitors, in order to be on the Lloyds conveyancing panel they would need to be governed by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. The majority of lenders do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in that case the organisation would be regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
I was told two weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Aldermore. Is it usual for Aldermore to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Horsford is approved on their conveyancing panel? Aldermore have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their Professional Indemnity Insurance Schedule.
A lender would not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Aldermore to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
