We were going to get a AIP from UBS this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do UBS recommend any Bournemouth solicitors on the UBS conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Bournemouth solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the UBS conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and UBS through the process.
After much negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Bournemouth. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £175. Shortly after, the solicitor called me to say that they were not on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Kent Reliance panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
