Myself and my partner have recently had an offer accepted on a apartment and had an appointment on Friday with the Post Office for the mortgage. They warned me that when it comes to choosing a conveyancing practitioner that unless they are on their approved list of conveyancing practitioners then we will have to pay out an extra fee of about two hundred pounds. This is is due to the fact that they would then have to instruct a property lawyer to act for them as well as the one we choose to act on our behalf and we will be on the hook for their fees. I have asked the Post Office to supply me with a list so I can request quotes only from their approved conveyancers but was told that I need to check with each individual solicitor to see if they are on the panel. Is their an easier way of going about this?

You should ask the Post Office what their panel criteria is for a solicitor.Then ask the conveyancer of your choice whether they meet the criteria and have they acted on loans for the Post Office previously. Where the answer to those is yes, then just double check with the Post Office. Another option is to use our search tool and we should be able to locate a lawyer in St Margarets on the panel for the Post Office.
