I am not well enough to travel far from Llantwit Fardre. I would like to know the understand why all Llantwit Fardre lawyers aren't included on all lender panels?

Mortgage Companies ordinarily restrict either the nature or the number of conveyancing firms on their approved list of lawyers. Typical examples of such criteria being that a practice is required to have two or more partners. As well as restricting the type of firm, some banks decided to reduce the number of organisations they permit to act for them. It is worth noting that mortgage companies have no liability for the quality of advice provided by any Llantwit Fardre property lawyer on their panel. Property fraud was the key driver in the reduction of conveyancing panels from 2008 even though there are conflicting views concerning the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Data published by HMLR reveal that thousands of conveyancing firms only conduct one or two conveyances annually. Those advocating conveyancing panel pruning ask why law firms deserve any entitlement to remain on a bank panel when clearly conveyancing is not their speciality?

We're in Llantwit Fardre, FTBs purchasing with a mortgage (lender is Aldermore , and our solicitor is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?

The fact that your lawyer is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no conveyancing practitioner should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.
