Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying.

We are buying a three room apartmentin Barton Le Clay with a home loan from a lender. We like our conveyancer in Barton Le Clay yet our lender inform us now that she’s not approved on their "panel". Apparently we need to choose from the our mortgage company panel firms or stay with our Barton Le Clay conveyancer and incur the extra costs for one of their panel ones to represent our mortgage company. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that our lender use our Barton Le Clay lawyer?
No, not really. The mortgage company mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender's conveyancing panel. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels, including many conveyancing solicitors in Barton Le Clay : 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.
