- Carry on with your existing Little Hulton solicitors but Platform Home Loans Ltd will need to retain a conveyancer on their list of acceptable firms. This will result in additional overall conveyancing fees and result in frustration.
- Get a new lawyer to act in the purchase, remembering to check they are on the Platform Home Loans Ltd panel
