Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Cippenham

I am not in a position to travel far from Cippenham. What is the rationale as to why all Cippenham lawyers aren't automatically on all mortgage company panels?

A decade ago most lenders exhibited an attitude to risk which differs from the current day. The FSA in 2010 instigated a thematic review into property fraud which concluded: know the conveyancing practitioners on your panel. As a result, mortgage companies have since looked to extract more data from law firms concerning their operations and the staff employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum volume of transactions. Many law practices have been removed from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy disciplinary record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Such firms were never going to meet the minimum amount of transactions the lenders insisted on.

Leaving aside the complexities and merits of DIY conveyancing in Cippenham you will have to appoint a solicitor on your lender's conveyancing panel to look after their interests. Most people therefore find it easier to let the solicitor act for them and the lender. Furthermore there is minimal cost savings to be made in you doing conveyancing for yourself and another lawyer conducting the conveyancing for the lender.

We're novice buyers - agreed a price, yet the selling agent advised that the owners will only issue a contract if we use the agent's chosen solicitors as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Cippenham

It is unlikely the vendors are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Try to communicate with the vendors directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to appoint your preferred Cippenham conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give their estate agent a kickback or hit his conveyancing targets set by head office.

Please can you suggest a trustworthy Cippenham solicitor for purchasing a flat? A relative suggested one but their estimate was £895 for a 150k property. I think thats high. The bank will be Coventry BS.

The purpose of this site is restricted to being a directory service for conveyancers who want to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Coventry BS in certain areas for instance Cippenham . Our intention is not to recommend any particular conveyancer.
