My fiance and I are buying a newly converted apartment in Lincoln with a homeloan from Yorkshire Building Society.We like our Lincoln conveyancing practitioner but Yorkshire Building Society advised that she’s not on their "panel". we are left little option but to use a Yorkshire Building Society panel solicitor or keep our local solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to act for them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The home loan issued to you is subject to its various provisions, one of which will be that solicitors must be on the Yorkshire Building Society approved list. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose 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 Yorkshire Building Society
