We are planning to acquire a flat and need a conveyancing solicitor in Ystalyfera who is on the Lloyds approved panel. Can you recommend a local solicitor?

we are a couple who are hoping to buy a 3 bedroom flat in Ystalyfera with a homeloan from Nationwide Building Society.We like our Ystalyfera conveyancing solicitor but Nationwide Building Society informed us she’s not listed on their "panel". It seems we are left with little choice but to instruct a Nationwide Building Society panel solicitor or keep our local solicitor and pay for a Nationwide Building Society panel lawyer to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The home loan issued to you contains various provisions, a common one being that lawyers needs to be on the Nationwide Building Society approved list. in the past, most mortgage companies had large numbers of solicitors 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. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Nationwide Building Society

    The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.
