Why are Estate Agents using search tools to check if lawyers are on a lenders conveyancing panel?
Many estate agents are feeling the pain if their clients start out on the buying process using a solicitor who is not on the panel with the purchaser’s chosen lender. Many
conveyancing firms are only discovering when they begin working on a
case that they are no longer able to work with that lender. Given
the inevitable resultant delays in the transaction the chances of an
abortive deal increases dramatically. in the circumstances there is
understandable anguish on the part of the estate agent as a result of
the lost time should the client have to change lawyers.
I recently attended a seminar arranged via my PI broker where it was mentioned that solicitors are being sued for non-compliance with Part 2 requirements . I am on the
Allied Irish Bank conveyancing panel can you tell me how Part 2 changes took place by
Allied Irish Bank during 2013?
During 2013, 1 sections of the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook P2 were changed by
Allied Irish Bank. Some changes are more important than others but as a firm on the
Allied Irish Bank conveyancing panel you are of course obliged to comply with individual lender requirements, as set out in Part II of the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook. Locktons have recently pointed out in an article that non-compliance with Part 2 requirements account for a number of high value claims, and it is therefore important to be aware of any particularly onerous terms that an individual lender may impose.
Remember: CML requirements are not guidelines; they are the lender client’s instructions.
I have been a qualified solicitor for approximately 30 years never having had a negligence claim and have been refused acceptance on the
Allied Irish Bank conveyancing panel with no explanation. Am I not entitled to a reason?
For most lenders participation on the lender's panel of conveyancers is at the absolute discretion of the the lender. Many lenders reserve the right to accept or reject any application without giving any reason. You should check your original application to join the
Allied Irish Bank conveyancing panel to see if you are entitled to a reason.
Marsh’s PI Insurance renewal form asks if my practice had been excluded from any mortgage panels in the last 12 months.
I just found out that the firm is no longer on the
Allied Irish Bank solicitor panel? Will that impact my PII premium?
Your insurance brokers are your best port of call to address this question.
The chances are that on the basis that you have not been removed for
fraud or negligence reasons that there will be little or no
impact. The main reason why a firm would be removed off of a lender
panel is due to low volume of conveyancing cases although there may be
a number of criteria for Allied Irish Bank solicitor panel
membership. Please remember that it is always important that you
complete your insurance forms accurately.
