I am nearing exchange of contracts for my ground floor flat in Ludgershall and the EA has just text me to warn that the buyers are changing their solicitor. The excuse is that the bank will only deal with solicitors on their approved list. On what basis would a major mortgage company only deal with certain lawyers rather the firm that they want to choose for their conveyancing in Ludgershall ?

Mortgage companies have always had panels of law firms that can represent them, but in recent years big names such as Lloyds Banking Group, have considered and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have acted for them for decades.

Banks point to the increase in fraud by way of justification for the reduction – criteria have been stiffened as a smaller panel is easier to maintain. No lender will say how many solicitors have been dropped, claiming the information is commercially sensitive, but the Law Society says it is hearing daily from firms that have been removed from panels. Plenty of firms do not even realise they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. The buyers are unlikely to have any sway in the decision.

I can not fathom if my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my Ludgershall bank branch on numerous occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they will lend.

I simply don't know who is right.

Your solicitor has to follow the CML Handbook section two conditions for your bank.

I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in August 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Co-operative are being problematic. The Ludgershall solicitor who is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Co-operative are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Co-operative have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Co-operative have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Co-operative may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
