I am not well enough to travel far from Frogmore. I would like to know the reason why all Frogmore conveyancing practitioners are not on all mortgage company panels?
Mortgage Companies normally restrict either the nature or volume of conveyancing solicitors on their panel. A common example of such criteria being that the practice is required to have at least two partners. As well as restricting the structure of firm, some banks made a decision to restrict the size of their panel they use to act for them. It is worth noting that building societies have no accountability for the accuracy of conveyancing supplied by any Frogmore conveyancing practitioner on their panel. Increases in mortgage fraud was the main trigger for the rationalisation of conveyancing panels in the last decade even though there are differing opinions about whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Data from HMLR reveal that thousands of conveyancing firms only conduct one or two conveyances a year. Those vindicating conveyancing panel culls question why conveyancing firms deserve claim to remain on a lender panel when it is apparent that conveyancing is not their speciality?

How does conveyancing in Frogmore differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Frogmore approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is completed. This is because builders in Frogmore usually buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Frogmore or who has acted in the same development.
