Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Wimborne Minster. Is there a reason why all Wimborne Minster conveyancers are not on all bank panels?
Before the recession most banks had an approach to risk which is different than today. The financial regulator in 2010 conducted a thematic review into mortgage fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the solicitors on your panel. Consequently, lenders have subsequently soughtmore data from law firms concerning their operations and the staff employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum volume of transactions. Thousands of law practices have found themselves excluded from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy disciplinary record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms found it impossible meet the minimum amount of transactions the mortgage companies required.
