We are purchasing a 2 bedroom flat in Rush Green with a mortgage. We have a Rush Green conveyancer, but the lender advise he's not on their "panel". It seems we have no choice but to appoint one of the mortgage company panel firms or retain our Rush Green property lawyer as well as pay for one of their panel firms to represent them. We consider that this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your Rush Green conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.
