However, the firms we work with offer a national conveyancing service and give as equally detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you digitally. The executing of the contract is not the important part.

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

We are buying a three room maisonettein Waolstenholme with a residential mortgage from a bank. We like our solicitor in Waolstenholme however our bank says she’s not approved on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct from the our bank panel solicitors or stay with our Waolstenholme conveyancer and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; Can we not simply insist that our lender use our Waolstenholme lawyer?
Unfortunately,no. The lender mortgage issued is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that solicitors will on the lender's conveyancing panel. Until recently, most mortgage companies had open panels, including almost all conveyancing solicitors in Waolstenholme : 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 your bank.
