I am considering applying for a TSB mortgage for purchase of a new build (under development) in Llanarth with 70% loan to value. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for TSB ?
In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the TSB conveyancing panel, but TSB would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same transaction.

How does conveyancing in Llanarth differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Llanarth approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because developers in Llanarth tend to buy the site, 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 property lawyers 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.
