I plan on buying a ground floor flat in Killay. My property lawyer has never been on on the lender approved panel. Is it possible for me to appoint my Killay conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the bank list of approved lawyers?

- Carry on with your preferred Killay conveyancer but your mortgage company will undoubtedly instruct a property lawyer on their approved list. This will result in additional fees together with likely delay.
- Get a new property lawyer to act in the purchase, obviously checking they are on the lender conveyancing panel.
- Convince your property lawyer to do everything possible to get accepted on the mortgage company panel of solicitors

Myself and my wife have just had an offer accepted on a flat and had meeting on Wednesday with the Post Office for the mortgage. They have informed me that when it comes to choosing a lawyer that if they are not on their approved list of solicitors then we will be subject to an an extra fee of £200. This is is due to the fact that they would then have to instruct a property lawyer to act for them as well as the one we select for ourselves and we will be on the hook for their costs. I have requested the Post Office to provide me with a list so I can seek quotes only from their approved lawyers but was told that I need to check with each individual lawyer to see if they are on the panel. Is there a list online?
Ask the Post Office what their criteria for panel membership is for a conveyancer.Thereafter ask the property lawyer of your choice whether they fit that criteria and have they acted on mortgages for the Post Office previously. Where the answer to those is yes, then just clarify this with the Post Office. Another option is to utilise our search facility and we may be able to locate a property lawyer in Killay on the approved list for the Post Office.
