Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Broughton In Furness. Is there a reason why all Broughton In Furness conveyancing practitioners aren't included on all lender panels?
Mortgage Companies tend to restrict either the type or the number of conveyancing solicitors on their panel. A common example of such criteria being that a organisation must have two or more partners. As well as restricting the nature of firm, some banks decided to limit the number of conveyancers they allow to act for them. You should note that building societies have no responsibility for the quality of service supplied by any Broughton In Furness conveyancer on their panel. Property fraud was the key driver in the reduction of conveyancing panels in the last decade notwithstanding that there are differing points of view about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Data via HM Land Registry exposes that thousands of conveyancing practices only conduct a couple of conveyances a year. Those advocating conveyancing panel consolidation question why conveyancing firms should have claim to be listed on a bank panel when clearly property law is not their speciality?
My husband and I are approaching an exchange on a house in Broughton In Furness and my parents have transferred the exchange deposit to my property lawyer. I am now advised that as the deposit has not arrived from me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my bank. Apparently, in also acting for the bank he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I disclosed to the mortgage company regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for this now to delay the deal?
The lawyer is legally required to check with lender to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only report this to your mortgage company if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
