My fiance and I are buying a 2 room ground floor flatin Needham Market with a loan from a bank. We wish to instruct our conveyancer in Needham Market yet our bank inform us now that he's not listed on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct from the our lender panel solicitors or keep our Needham Market conveyancer and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The bank mortgage issued is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the mortgage company's conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had open panels, including almost all conveyancing solicitors in Needham Market : a mortgagee could choose 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. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your bank.
