Housebuilders frequently have panels of lawyers who are quick and who know the builder's contract and solicitor. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to select a preferred property lawyer for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a builder will not recommend a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they want exchange in 28 days. A counter-argument for not agreeing to use the suggested solicitor is that they may prove unwilling to 'push' your interests at the risk of upsetting the housebuilder.
