Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Dukinfield. Can you please clarify why all Dukinfield are not on all lender panels?
Banks tend to restrict either the nature or volume of conveyancing firms on their panel. A common example of such criteria being that the organisation must have at least two partners. As well as restricting the type of firm, some banks made a decision to restrict the size of their panel they use to represent them. It is worth noting that banks have no accountability for the quality of conveyancing provided by any Dukinfield on their approved list. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the culling of conveyancing panels from 2008 even though there are contrary views concerning whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Statistics from HMLR reveal that thousands of conveyancing organisations only transact a couple of conveyances a year. Those advocating conveyancing panel pruning question why law firms should have claim to be listed on a lender panel when clearly conveyancing is not their speciality?
