I can't travel far from Northwich. Can you please spell out why all Northwich conveyancers aren't automatically on all bank panels?
Even though it may seem unfair for banks to limit who can act for them, from the public’s or lawyer’s standpoint, the the contrary view is that banks are becoming ever more anxious and feel it imperative to protect them against mortgage fraud. As a result of this concern banks are limiting their conveyancing panel to a size that they are happy to control.
Some advice if I may. My Northwich conveyancer is informing me me that he is legally obliged toconduct Northwich conveyancing searches resulting from the fact thatthe firm are on the Lloydssolicitor panel. Is my lawyer right?
You have limited options available to you. Given that you are taking out a loan with a mortgage company your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your solicitor would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the CML Handbook conditions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Northwich conveyancing searches.
