we are a couple who are buying a newly converted flat in Cleethorpes with a residential mortgage from Norwich and Peterborough Building Society.We use our Cleethorpes conveyancing practitioner but Norwich and Peterborough Building Society advised that his firm is not listed on their approved list of firms. It seems we are left with no choice but to instruct a Norwich and Peterborough Building Society panel lawyer or retain our high street solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The home loan issued to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers must be on the Norwich and Peterborough Building Society conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower 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. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Norwich and Peterborough Building Society
