Me and my partner are purchasing a four bedroom ground floor flatin Ruislip Manor with a mortgage from a bank. We have selected a solicitor in Ruislip Manor yet our mortgage company inform us now that she’s not listed on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct from the our lender panel firms or keep our Ruislip Manor conveyancer and incur the extra costs for one of their panel ones to represent our mortgage company. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The lender home loan offered to you is subject to conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender's conveyancing panel. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels, including most conveyancing solicitors in Ruislip Manor : a mortgagee could choose 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. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your mortgage company.
