I can't travel far from Hull. Is there a reason why all Hull conveyancing practitioners are not on all bank panels?
Mortgage companies point to the fact that solicitor-led fraud is thought to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud every year.The removal of law firms off of lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the Financial Services Authority in 2011. Its outcome included recommendations for lending institutions to review their conveyancing panels, which triggered a major policy change in the sector. It resulted in banks and building societies removing less reputable firms off their panel of approved solicitors .

I'm buying my first flat in Hull benefiting from help to buy. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative told me not to tell my solicitor about this deal as it will put at risk my loan with The Royal Bank of Scotland. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
We're FTB’s - agreed a price, but the agent advised that the vendor will only issue a contract if we instruct the agent's recommended conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family conveyancer who is accustomed to conveyancing in Hull
It is highly unlikely the vendors are driving this. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious buyer is not the way to achieve this. Try to communicate with the owners directly and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to appoint your preferred Hull conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthe ones that will earn their estate agent a referral fee or hit his conveyancing targets set by corporate headquarters.
