Is the fact that my solicitor in Parkstone is not listed on my lender's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of the firm’s conveyancing?
It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are plenty of plausible explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% 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 lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should simply call the Parkstone conveyancing practice and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your lender.
My husband and I are buying a brand new apartment in Parkstone and my solicitor is telling me that she has to the mortgage company to disclose incentives from the builder. The Estate Agents are hassling me to exchange and I would rather not delay matters. Is my lawyer right?
You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your conveyancer. A precondition to being on a mortgage company panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.
