We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to use their panel solicitor as I would prefer to appoint a Stocksfield based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the chances are that allocate you one of their panel lawyers where you accept the "fee-free" offer. Contact the mortgage company to determine if they allow a monetary alternative. Some mortgage companies have previously offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Stocksfield.
Can I be sure that the Stocksfield conveyancing solicitor on the Co-operative panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Stocksfield getting recommendations is a sensible start. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer.

We would always recommend that you speak with the lawyer carrying out your transaction.
Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Skipton. Stocksfield conveyancing practitioners are instructed. How long does it take for Skipton to send the offer to the solicitor?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Skipton completed the survey? Have you advised Skipton as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Skipton conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in December 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Bank of Ireland are being pedantic. The Stocksfield solicitor who is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Bank of Ireland are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Bank of Ireland have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Bank of Ireland have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Bank of Ireland may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
