My husband and I are purchasing a newly converted apartment in Preston Park with a homeloan from Bank of Scotland.We have a Preston Park conveyancing solicitor but Bank of Scotland informed us her practice is not on their "panel". we are left little option but to use a Bank of Scotland panel solicitor or keep our high street solicitor and pay for a Bank of Scotland panel lawyer to act for them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Bank of Scotland use our lawyer?
Unfortunately,no. The mortgage offered to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that conveyancers needs to be on the Bank of Scotland solicitor panel. Until recently, most mortgage companies had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Bank of Scotland

Flooding is a growing risk for solicitors conducting conveyancing in Preston Park. There are those who purchase a house in Preston Park, completely expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical damage, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or dispose of the premises. There are steps that can be taken during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the buyer.
Solicitors are not qualified to give advice on flood risk, but there are a numerous checks that may be carried out by the purchaser or by their lawyers which will figure out the risks in Preston Park. The conventional set of completed inquiry forms supplied to a buyer’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) incorporates a standard inquiry of the seller to discover if the property has ever been flooded. In the event that the property has been flooded in past and is not revealed by the owner, then a buyer may bring a claim for damages stemming from an incorrect reply. A purchaser’s lawyers should also order an enviro search. This will disclose whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations will need to be conducted.
