Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Market Deeping

I am progressing with the sale of my house in Market Deeping and the EA has just text me to advise that the purchasers are changing their conveyancer. I am told that this is due to the fact that the lender will only engage with solicitors on their approved list. On what basis would a leading mortgage company only work with certain law firms rather the firm that they want to appoint to handle their conveyancing in Market Deeping ?

Banks have always had an approved set of law firms they are content to work with, but in the past few 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 more than 15 years.

Lenders blame a rise in fraud as the reason for the reduction – criteria have been narrowed as a smaller panel is easier to oversee. Banks tend not to disclose how many solicitors have been dropped, claiming the information is commercially sensitive, but the Law Society claims that it is being contacted daily by practices that have been removed from panels. Some 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. Your purchasers are unlikely to have any impact on this.

Can you point me to a directory of Barclays panel solicitors in Market Deeping on the Building Society Association’s Website?

No. There is no such tool on the CML or Building Society Association websites. Very few mortgage companies make their panel listings visible over the internet. If you are seeking to appoint a Market Deeping conveyancer on the Barclays please make the most of our facility.

The property agent will need to be informed of your lawyer's details (ensure that the conveyancers are on the lender’s approved list).

Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average ten days for the mortgage offer to be issued. Lloyds will issue the offer to you and your solicitors.
