We wanted to use a property lawyer in Old Stratford for our house move. Our broker informed us that our mortgage company Coventry Building Society won't deal with them. Surely this is unfair competition?

Pre- 2008 most banks had a different appetite for risk. Almost all Old Stratford conveyancing firms would have been on most mortgage company panels. The financial services regulator in 2010 conducted a thematic review into mortgage fraud which come to the conclusion: mortgage lenders should know the conveyancing solicitors dealt with.

Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Old Stratford you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Old Stratford may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
