I have a decision in principle. The bank mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to instruct their panel lawyer as I would prefer to use a high street conveyancing solicitor in North Cornelly?
You should check but the the probability is that appoint one of their panel lawyers where you accept the "fee-free" offer. Speak to the lender to see if they allow a monetary alternative. In the past a few mortgage companies offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in North Cornelly.

We would encourage you not to base your choice on the cheapest North Cornelly conveyancing fees. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of time.
