I am not well enough to travel far from Perranporth. Is there a reason why all Perranporth conveyancing practitioners aren't automatically on all bank panels?
Lenders normally impose restrictions on either the type or volume of conveyancing solicitors on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such criteria being that the practice must have at least two partners. As well as restricting the structure of firm, some building societies made a decision to restrict the number of firms they allow to act for them. You should note that building societies have no accountability for the quality of conveyancing given by any Perranporth conveyancer on their panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the culling of conveyancing panels a few years ago even though there are opposing thoughts concerning whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Statistics from HM Land Registry exposes that thousands of law practices only conduct less than three conveyances a year. Those vindicating conveyancing panel cuts question why law firms should have any entitlement to remain on a lender panel when it is apparent that conveyancing is not their speciality?
