My husband and I are buying a newly converted flat in Soham with a homeloan from Aldermore.We like our Soham conveyancing practitioner but Aldermore informed us she’s not on their "panel". It seems we are left with little choice but to instruct a Aldermore panel lawyer or retain our preferred solicitor and pay for a Aldermore panel lawyer to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; Can we not simply insist that Aldermore use our lawyer?
No, not really. The loan issued to you contains various provisions, a common one being that solicitors needs to be on the Aldermore approved list. in the past, most mortgage companies had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower 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 Aldermore

I am purchasing a property in Soham. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Aldermore be concerned?
As you are obtaining a mortgage with Aldermore your lawyer must check the conveyancing instructions contained in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Aldermore. The CML Handbook includes minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancing practitioners are required to report to Aldermore where a lease does not comply with these requirements. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not isolated to Soham.
The mortgage over my property is with Nottingham for my property in Soham. Conveyancing was finalised months ago. In the event that I decide to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Nottingham?
Nottingham must be informed of your intention prior to letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Nottingham’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Nottingham will allow you to rent out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Nottingham directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Nottingham conveyancing panel firm.
