Please help. My Ruislip Manor solicitor is advising me that he has toconduct Ruislip Manor conveyancing searches due to the fact thatthe firm are on the Nat Westconveyancing panel. Is this really necessary?
You have limited options available to you. Given that you are taking out a loan with a mortgage company your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Ruislip Manor conveyancing searches.

I'm buying a apartment in Ruislip Manor. I can find my conveyancer's company on the CLC list, but I can't find my conveyancer's name on the list. Is this a big problem?
