Unlike the CML the Building Society Mortgage Instructions deal with this. Section A.12 states ‘In order to act on our behalf your firm or company must be a member of our conveyancing panel provided we are a society that operates one – see specific requirements for details of our arrangements.
The Special Requirements state:
We do not operate a conveyancing panel
You must also comply with the terms and conditions of your Teachers Building Society solicitor panel appointment.

Who do building societies include on their conveyancing panel?

Terms and Conditions and criteria for inclusion on a building society conveyancing panel vary from lender-to-lender. Having CQS accreditation may be a requirement.
Institutional lenders, such as a building society, is a client and is entitled to instruct the solicitor or conveyancer of its choosing (who, in turn, is free to accept or refuse instructions). Therefore, if lender and borrower cannot agree which solicitor or conveyancer should represent them jointly, they would usually proceed on a separate representation basis.

specifically deal with Solar Panels but it would be prudent as
approved solicitors for Teachers Building Society to raise the issue
with them (as you would if the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook applied). In any event you
need to raise the appropriate questions for your buyer client.
What lender panels do you receive the most questions about?
