Me and my wife have just had an offer accepted on a flat and had meeting on Monday with the Post Office for the mortgage. They have informed me that when it comes to appointing a conveyancing practitioner that if they are not on their approved list of conveyancers then we will have to pay out an additional charge of about two hundred pounds. This is because they will then have to select a property lawyer to act on their behalf as well as the one we appoint for ourselves and we assume responsibility for their invoice. I have requested the Post Office to supply me with a list so I can obtain quotes only from their approved solicitors but was told they dont have such a list to hand over.
