Housebuilders often have lists of conveyancing practitioners who expedite matters and who know the builder's paperwork and solicitor. As many developers offer an incentive to select their approved lawyer for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a builder won't put forward a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the conveyancing stall when they need an exchange within a tight time frame. A counter-argument for not opting for the suggested lawyer is that they may prove hesitant to fight for your interests for fear of alienating the housebuilder.
