Me and my fiance are buying an apartment in Tottenham. My Conveyancer has never been on on the mortgage company solicitor list. Can I still appoint my Tottenham conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the mortgage company approved list?
You will need to instruct a solicitor to deal with the formalities when you need a loan to buy your property. They will conduct all the necessary due diligence on the property, ensuring that you will be registered as proprietor and ensure that all the necessary mortgage paperwork is dealt with. You can instruct a Tottenham property lawyer of your choice. However, where the conveyancer selected is not on the bank solicitor panel further fees will arise as separate legal representation will be required by them. Lender panel applications may be submitted, so provided your solicitor has not in the past applied for membership they should take the chance to apply.
Please explain the implications if my solicitor is removed from the UBS Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Tottenham?
The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

That being said,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitor practices wishing to join their panels.
