My fiance and I intend to purchase a purpose built apartment in Wallington with a loan from Coventry Building Society.We would like to retain our Wallington conveyancing lawyer but Coventry Building Society informed us he's not on their "panel". we are left little option but to use a Coventry Building Society panel lawyer or retain our high street solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The loan offered to you is subject to its various provisions, a common one being that solicitors needs to be on the Coventry Building Society solicitor panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could find 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. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Coventry Building Society
