I am acquiring an apartment in Manchester. My Solicitor has never been on on the lender approved panel. Can I still continue with my Manchester conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the lender approved list?
You must instruct a solicitor to deal with the formalities when you take out a mortgage to purchase your home. The conveyancing practitioner will carry out all the appropriate due diligence on the property, ensuring that you’re registered as proprietor and ensure that all the necessary mortgage documentation is dealt with. One can instruct a Manchester property lawyer of your choosing. However, where the lawyer appointed is not on the mortgage company solicitor panel further charges will be incurred as separate legal representation will be required by them. Bank panel applications can be submitted, so where your lawyer has not in the past sought membership they should take the opportunity to apply.
