I plan on purchasing residence in Crosby. My lawyer is not listed on the bank conveyancing list. Is it possible for me to appoint my Crosby conveyancing solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the bank list of approved lawyers?
One must have a conveyancing practitioner to deal with the legal work required if you take out a loan to buy your property. They will carry out all the necessary legal checks on the property, make sure that you’re properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the necessary mortgage documentation is in order. One may appoint a Crosby property lawyer of your choice. However, if the conveyancer selected is not on the bank approved list supplemental charges will arise as separate legal representation will be required by them. Conveyancing panel applications may be submitted, so where your conveyancer has not previously applied for membership they should take the chance to apply.
