Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Putney Vale

I am nearing exchange of contracts for my maisonette in Putney Vale and the EA has just e-mailed to say that the purchasers are changing their property lawyer. The excuse is that the bank will only deal with solicitors on their conveyancing panel. On what basis would a big named lender only deal with specific law firms rather the firm that they want to appoint for their conveyancing in Putney Vale ?

Lenders have always had an approved set of law firms that can act for them, but in recent years big names such as Nationwide, have reviewed and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have represented them for more than 15 years.

Banks point to the increase in fraud by way of justification for the reduction – criteria have been narrowed as a smaller panel is easier to monitor. Banks tend not to reveal how many solicitors have been dropped, claiming the information is commercially sensitive, but the Law Society claims that it is hearing daily from firms that have been removed from panels. Plenty of firms are unaware that they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. The buyers are not going to have any impact on this.
