Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Mawsley

I am 3 weeks into the sale of my home in Mawsley and the estate agent has just called to say that the purchasers are swapping solicitor. The excuse is that the mortgage company will only deal with property lawyers on their conveyancing panel. Why would a big named mortgage company only engage with specific solicitors rather the firm that they want to select for their conveyancing in Mawsley ?

UK lenders have always had panels of law firms that can represent them, but in the past few years big names such as Yorkshire Building Society, have considered and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have acted for them for decades.

Lending institutions point to the increase in fraud as the reason for the pruning – criteria have been narrowed as a smaller panel is easier to monitor. Banks tend not to reveal 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. Plenty of firms are unaware that they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. Your buyers are unlikely to have any sway in the decision.
