I am purchasing a maisonette in Priorslee. My lawyer is not listed on the lender solicitor list. Is it possible for me to appoint my Priorslee conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the bank panel?
You must appoint a property lawyer to deal with the formalities if you require a loan to purchase your property. The lawyer will conduct all the necessary investigations on the property, ensuring that you will be registered as proprietor and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is dealt with. You can instruct a Priorslee lawyer of your choosing. Nevertheless, where the conveyancer selected is not a member of the lender approved list further costs will be levied as separate legal representation will be need by the bank. Conveyancing panel applications may be submitted, so provided your lawyer has not in the past applied for membership they should take the chance to apply.
The deeds to my property are lost. The conveyancers who conducted the conveyancing in Priorslee 5 years ago no longer exist. What do I do?
