We are buying a 3 bedroom flat in Aberaeron with a loan from Virgin Money.We have a Aberaeron conveyancing lawyer but Virgin Money informed us she’s not on their approved list of firms. We have to appoint a Virgin Money panel firm or retain our high street solicitor and fork out for a Virgin Money panel lawyer to act for them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Virgin Money use our lawyer?
No, not really. The mortgage issued to you is subject to its various provisions, one of which will be that solicitors needs to be on the Virgin Money approved list. Until recently, most banks had large numbers of law firms 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 Virgin Money
