Me and my partner are purchasing a maisonette in Kibworth Beauchamp. My Solicitor is not listed on the lender conveyancing panel. Can I still appoint my Kibworth Beauchamp conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the bank approved list?
You have a couple of options available to you here
- Complete the deal with your preferred Kibworth Beauchamp lawyer but your lender will no doubt retain a solicitor from their approved list. The net result is additional charges together with potential interruption.
- Get a new lawyer to act in the purchase, ensuring that they are on the bank conveyancing panel.
- Convince your lawyer to apply to join the bank panel

we are a couple who wish to acquire a newbuild apartment in Kibworth Beauchamp with a mortgage from Aldermore.We would like to retain our Kibworth Beauchamp conveyancing solicitor but Aldermore informed us she’s not on their "panel". We have to appoint a Aldermore panel solicitor or retain our local solicitor and fork out for a Aldermore panel lawyer to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The mortgage issued to you contains terms and conditions, a common one being that conveyancers will be on the Aldermore approved list. Until recently, most banks had large numbers of law firms 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 solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Aldermore
We're new on the property ladder - had an offer accepted, but the agent advised that the owners will only issue a contract if we instruct the agent's chosen solicitors as they need an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a high street solicitor who is accustomed to conveyancing in Kibworth Beauchamp
We suspect that the seller is not behind this requirement. If they require ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are ready to progress, with finances in place © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to appoint your preferred Kibworth Beauchamp conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthe ones that will give the negotiator at the agency a kickback or meet his conveyancing thresholds demanded by senior management.
Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Kibworth Beauchamp. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Kibworth Beauchamp - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

Me and my wife are disposing of a Kibworth Beauchamp house left to us seven years ago in 2011. I have over 12 years conveyancing knowledge and, now retired, wish to undertake my own conveyancing. The buyer's lawyer has informed me that their bank will not allow you to do your own conveyancing requiring the funds to be transferred to a solicitor's bank account.
Mortgage requirements to conveyancing practitioners from all mainstream lenders state that If the seller is not legally represented the purchaser’s lawyers should check whether the lender needs to be informed so that a decision can be made as to whether they are willing to proceed.
