Given that I am about to spend 450k on a terraced house in Shepherd's Bush I would like to talk to a conveyancer concerning theconveyancing prior to appointing the firm. Can this be arranged?

We could not agree more - it is our preference to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you first talking to the conveyancer due to be carrying out your conveyancing in Shepherd's Bush.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is unique individual, not a case reference. The solicitors that we put you in touch with believe that the fees you are calculated and presented to you for residential conveyancing in Shepherd's Bush should be the amount on the final invoice that you end up paying.

My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, yet the selling agent has warned us that the seller will only go ahead if we use their preferred conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Shepherd's Bush

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this requirement. If they require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is counter productive. Contact the owners directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to use your own,trusted Shepherd's Bush conveyancing firm - rather thanthe ones that will earn their estate agent a referral fee or hit his conveyancing thresholds pre-set by senior management.

My 20yr old son is embarking on her first house purchase, the home loan was agreed last week in principle. One the offer was accepted on flat we called the building society to issue the formal offer. We were very surprised to learn that mortgage companies do not accept all lawyer, they must be on their panel, is this correct?

Lenders ordinarily restrict either the type or the number of conveyancing firms on their panel. Typical examples of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some have decided to limit the number of firms they use to represent them. You should note that banks have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any Shepherd's Bush lawyer on their panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago and whilst there are differing views about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry reveal that thousands of law firms only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have the right to be on a Lender panel when clearly, conveyancing is not their speciality. To put it another way; would you want a conveyancing solicitor to represent you if you were charged with a crime? Probably not.
