Across every lender searched on the directory in the last ninety days, April Mortgages sits at number 52 of 138. Rank is a measure of how often people look for a lender, not of how well its panel firms perform, and the two are worth keeping apart.

  1. The question being answered

    Not "which conveyancers are near me", but "which conveyancers near me can act on a April Mortgages mortgage". Those return very different lists, and only the second is useful once a mortgage offer exists.

  2. How the postcode is used

    It fixes a point to measure from. Firms are listed nearest first, which suits anyone who would rather hand documents over in person, and can be ignored by anyone who would not.

  3. What the badges beside a firm mean

    Each firm carries its regulator, and its registration number where the directory holds one that belongs to the firm. Both registers are public, so nothing here has to be taken on trust.

Figures come from searches recorded on the LenderPanel directory since June 2026, last read in August 2026. They count searches rather than transactions, and a search is a person looking rather than a mortgage completing. Regional shares are calculated over the searches whose postcode area could be placed in a region, which is not quite all of them.

What the regulator badges on a April Mortgages panel firm mean

Somebody on a April Mortgages purchase holds a deposit, a mortgage advance and a completion payment on your behalf. The rules governing how that money is kept come from the firm's regulator, not from the lender.

SRA

Solicitors Regulation Authority

  • Regulates solicitors and the firms they practise in, and maintains the public record of who is authorised.
  • Client money is held under the SRA Accounts Rules, separately from the firm’s own.
  • Complaints that a firm cannot resolve can be taken to the Legal Ombudsman.

CLC

Council for Licensed Conveyancers

  • Regulates licensed conveyancers, who are specialists in property law rather than general practitioners.
  • Carries its own client-money and professional-indemnity requirements.
  • A CLC licence is not a lesser qualification for conveyancing work; it is a narrower one.

Some firms also hold the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme accreditation, which is a practice-management standard rather than a regulator. Several lenders treat it as a condition of panel membership. It is worth asking a firm which of these it holds, and both registers are public.

Questions people ask about the April Mortgages panel

A few things worth knowing about the April Mortgages conveyancing panel before you choose a firm, put as the questions people actually ask.

Your solicitor, in a client account kept separately from the firm's own money under its regulator's accounts rules. That separation is one of the main things regulation buys, and it is the reason the firm's regulatory status is worth checking before any money moves.

Usually because they are not quoting for the same things. Part of a quote is the firm's own fee for its work and part is money it pays out on your behalf, and search packs differ between firms and between local authorities. Ask for the two shown separately before comparing.

Try a wider location or a nearby town. The directory holds a selection of firms rather than every firm on the April Mortgages panel, so an empty result says something about the directory's coverage of that area rather than about the panel itself.

A transfer of equity changes the title, so where a April Mortgages mortgage is secured on the property the work normally has to be done by a firm the lender has approved. The lender's consent is the gating item rather than a formality at the end.

April Mortgages would normally instruct a separate firm to act for it, and the transaction continues with two firms involved rather than one. Ask your solicitor to tell you promptly if their status changes, because the cost consequence usually falls on the borrower.

Ask April Mortgages first: changes handled without a solicitor

An ordinary purchase or remortgage is covered by the panel rules described elsewhere on this page. What follows is about the non-routine: alterations to the title itself. The examples below are illustrative rather than a complete list.

  1. Extending or varying a lease

    A lease extension replaces the lease April Mortgages holds its security over, so the lender is a party to the process rather than a bystander. It is ordinary work, and it is ordinary for it to need an approved firm.

  2. Anything that changes the security

    If the register would look different afterwards, the lender has an interest in it. That is the practical test for whether a change needs a conveyancer and the lender’s consent, or neither.

It is worth asking April Mortgages before instructing anyone. A good number of mortgage changes, consent to let and rate switches among them, are administered by the lender and need no external legal work, so no legal fees arise. The lender's own charges may still apply.
