we are a couple who are hoping to buy a newly converted flat in Oxted with a homeloan from Coventry Building Society.We like our Oxted conveyancing solicitor but Coventry Building Society says she’s not listed on their approved list of firms. We have to appoint a Coventry Building Society panel solicitor or retain our local solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to act for them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Coventry Building Society use our lawyer?

Unfortunately,no. The mortgage offered to you contains terms and conditions, a common one being that conveyancers must be on the Coventry Building Society solicitor 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. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Coventry Building Society

I'm buying my first flat in Oxted with the aid of help to buy. The developers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The property agent suggested that I not disclose to my lawyer about the deal as it may put at risk my mortgage with the lender. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I am 18 days into a residential purchase having been recommend to a firm by the selling agent to execute conveyancing in Oxted. We are not happy. Can you help me find new conveyancers?

They would have to be very poor in order to consider replacing them. Has your mortgage been generated? In the event that it has you must inform them of the new contact details and ensure the loan are re-sent. Your solicitor ideally needs to be on the lenders panel to avoid escalating costs and frustration. So that should be your first question of the new lawyers.
