My wife and I are acquiring a ground floor flat in Stourport On Severn. When we first instructed property lawyer, they said that they were on all mainstream lender panels. The mortgage broker contacted us today to advise that they are not on the Barclays approved list. Should that be true, what should we do? Should we just pick a different solicitor that is on their approved list or should we cover the costs for separate representation, with Barclays appointing their own preferred solicitor.
Where you are buying a property requiring a mortgage it is normal for the purchaser’s solicitors to also represent the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a solicitor has to be on that lender's list of approved lawyers. An application has to be made by the conveyancer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict conditions which the lawyer has to satisfy. Some mortgage companies now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your property lawyer should contact Barclays to find out if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on Barclays's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Stourport On Severn solicitors, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another conveyancer into the equation.
