Do lenders provide you with an approved list of Woolacombe conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the UBS conveyancing panel?

Woolacombe conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the UBS conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from UBS directly.

We are hoping to buy a newly converted apartment in Woolacombe with a homeloan from Clydesdale.We use our Woolacombe conveyancing lawyer but Clydesdale advised that he's not listed on their approved list of member firms. we are left little option but to use a Clydesdale panel firm or retain our local solicitor and fork out for a Clydesdale panel lawyer to act for them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Clydesdale use our lawyer?

Unfortunately,no. The home loan issued to you is subject to its terms and conditions, a common one being that conveyancers will be on the Clydesdale approved list. in the past, most mortgage companies 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 lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Clydesdale

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the agent has warned us that the owners will only move forward if we appoint their recommended solicitors as they want an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local conveyancer used to conveyancing in Woolacombe

It is unlikely the owners are behind this. If they require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to use your preferred Woolacombe conveyancing firm - rather thanthe ones that will provide their estate agent a kickback or hit his conveyancing targets demanded by corporate headquarters.
