I plan on purchasing a leasehold flat in Alperton. My Solicitor is not on the mortgage company approved panel. Am I still permitted to appoint my Alperton conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the bank panel?
You have numerous choices open to you here
- Carry on with your preferred Alperton conveyancing practitioner but your mortgage company will no doubt appoint a lawyer from their conveyancing panel. The net result is additional charges and likely interruption.
- Appoint a fresh lawyer to act in the purchase, making sure they are on the mortgage company conveyancing panel.
- Convince your conveyancing practitioner to pull out all the stops to get listed on the bank’s panel of solicitors
