Where you are in close proximity to our conveyancing solicitors in Wilton you are welcome to attend to sign contracts. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we work with supply a national conveyancing service and give as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you digitally.

The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Wilton)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in November 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, are being problematic. The Wilton solicitor who is on the conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

Me and my partner are buying a four bedroom flatin Wilton with a loan from a lender. We would like to retain our solicitor in Wilton yet our bank inform us now that she’s not listed on their "panel". Apparently we need to choose from the our bank panel solicitors or keep our Wilton conveyancer and pay for one of their panel ones to represent our lender. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The bank mortgage issued is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender's conveyancing panel. Until recently, most mortgage companies had open panels, including most conveyancing solicitors in Wilton : 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 lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your mortgage company.
