We wish to acquire a newly converted apartment in Woodcote Green with a loan from Nationwide Building Society.We would like to retain our Woodcote Green conveyancing solicitor but Nationwide Building Society informed us he's not on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct a Nationwide Building Society panel firm or keep our local solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to act for them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers must be on the Nationwide Building Society conveyancing panel. in the past, 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 lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Nationwide Building Society
