The lawyer will carry out all the necessary legal checks on the property, make sure that you will be properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is in order. One could appoint a Warsash property lawyer of your choice. Nevertheless, if the conveyancing practitioner selected is not on the mortgage company solicitor panel further fees will be incurred as separate legal representation will be required by them. Bank panel applications can be submitted, so where your lawyer has not historically sought membership they should do so.
