My fiance and I wish to acquire a purpose built apartment in Datchet with a loan from Bank of Ireland.We would like to retain our Datchet conveyancing solicitor but Bank of Ireland advised that his firm is not listed on their "panel". We have to appoint a Bank of Ireland panel firm or keep our preferred solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers must be on the Bank of Ireland approved list. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Bank of Ireland
Have completed on a a semi-detached house in Datchet , how long should it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing the transfer to my name? My Datchet conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain the registration is concluded.
As far as conveyancing in Datchet is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales.

At present in the region of 80% of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not usually primary concern yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
