My husband and I are purchasing a first floor flat in Marford. At the time of instructing our solicitor, we were told they were on all mainstream mortgage company panels. Our mortgage broker called yesterday to say that they don't appear to be on the Bank of Ireland approved list. Were it to be true, what should we do? Do we simply find a different property lawyer that is on their approved list or do we cover the costs for separate representation, with Bank of Ireland appointing their own preferred conveyancing practitioner.
Where you are purchasing a property requiring a mortgage it is usual for the buyer’s lawyers to also represent the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a property lawyer has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the property lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict conditions which the solicitor has to fulfill. Some mortgage companies now require their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your property lawyer should call Bank of Ireland to discover if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on Bank of Ireland's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Marford lawyers, in which case it will likely add costs, and it will likely delay the transaction as you have another set of people involved.
