Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Barrow In Furness. I would like to know the reason why all Barrow In Furness property lawyers are not on all mortgage company panels?
Even though it may seem unfair for banks to restrict who can act for them, from the public’s or conveyancer’s point of view, the the contrary view is that lenders are becoming ever more anxious and consider it crucial to defend themselves from illegal activities. As a consequence of this concern banks have restricted their panel of approved conveyancing lawyers to a size that they are happy to control.

We previously instructed conveyancing lawyers located in Barrow In Furness on the RBS solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a supplemental sum for handling the RBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by RBS?
As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your conveyancer may levy a fee for this. This charge is not set by RBS but by your Barrow In Furness property lawyer. Some firms on the RBS panel will charge ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.
I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in September 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Nationwide are being problematic. The Barrow In Furness solicitor who is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Nationwide are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Nationwide have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Nationwide have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Nationwide may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
