Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Millwall

Is the fact that my solicitor in Millwall is not listed on my lender's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of her work?

It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are plenty of plausible explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) lack of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Where you are concerned you should simply call the Millwall conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

It is unclear whether my lender requires a lease extension. I have called my Millwall building society branch on various occasions and was told it wasn't an issue and they would lend. My Millwall conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called and was told they will not lend in accordance with their specific requirements. I have no idea who is right.

Provided that the conveyancing practitioner is on the bank panel, she or he must follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements for the lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.
