My husband and I are buying a newly converted flat in Stotfold with a mortgage from Accord Mortgages Ltd.We like our Stotfold conveyancing practitioner but Accord Mortgages Ltd says his firm is not listed on their approved list of member firms. It seems we have no choice but to instruct a Accord Mortgages Ltd panel solicitor or keep our preferred solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; Can we not simply insist that Accord Mortgages Ltd use our lawyer?
Unfortunately,no. The loan offered to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that conveyancers must be on the Accord Mortgages Ltd approved list. Until recently, most mortgage companies had large numbers of solicitors 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 Accord Mortgages Ltd
