Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Stretford. What is the rationale as to why all Stretford solicitors aren't automatically on all lender panels?
Lenders normally impose restrictions on either the type or volume of conveyancing practices on their approved list of lawyers. Frequent examples of such restriction(s) being that the firm is required to have at least two partners. In addition to restricting the nature of firm, some building societies made a decision to restrict the number of conveyancers they allow to act for them. It is worth noting that banks have no responsibility for the standard of service provided by any Stretford property lawyer on their panel. Increases in mortgage fraud was the main trigger for the culling of conveyancing panels in the last decade even though there are contrary opinions about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics via HM Land Registry indicates that thousands of law organisations only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those advocating conveyancing panel cuts ask why conveyancing firms should have claim to be listed on a bank panel when clearly conveyancing is not their primary expertise?
