My financial adviser requires my Taffs Well solicitor’s panel reference for the Santander conveyancing panel. How do I obtain this. I have tried my local Taffs Well branch but they have not got back to me yet.

We would encourage you not to go for the lowest Taffs Well conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of the deal.
Is it the case that all Taffs Well CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) solicitors are on the HSBC conveyancing panel?
Some major banks and building societies now use CQS as the kick off point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. CQS accreditation however gives no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. That being said,the Council of Mortgage Lenders have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitor practices wishing to remain on their approved list of conveyancing solicitors.
I'm in the process of viewing apartments in Taffs Well and I am now considering a potential offer. Is it best to have a solicitor on ‘stand by’? I am planning to take a home loan with Yorkshire BS.
It would be prudent to commence your search sooner rather than later. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their details on to the selling agent. Given that you are seeking a mortgage with Yorkshire BS, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.
