Yorkshire Bank Conveyancing Panel Information

The criteria to join the Yorkshire Bank conveyancing panel is likely to be fairly detailed and is unlikely to include signing up to LENDERmonitor alerts.

Lexsure only know of a couple of banks that operate a distinct conveyancing panel where the mortgage advance is over a certain threshold. You should nevertheless check directly with Yorkshire Bank. At one stage HSBC would only allow Sole practitioners to act for them where the mortgage was below £150,000. We are not sure if HSBC still operate such a condition. In your case it is best to check with Yorkshire Bank

There are many reports available, five of which are as follows:

• Evidence of undertaking logs
• Disclosure/Notification to Lender analysis indicating frequency and nature of disclosures - to include benchmarking analysis against aggregate data
• Analysis as to the nature of clients (e.g.existing/new/seen in person)
• Buy to Let transactions
• Number of conveyancing cases by lender

We would recommend that you supply details of the date of removal, information on the reason for removal, date of appeal and any reason given for reinstatement. This should not negatively affect your application but gives the CQS team a complete picture of what has occured.

You would be advised to contact Yorkshire Bank to obtain standard documents. The CML Handbook has a specific question for lenders to set out who to contact to obtain standard documents. Yorkshire Bank in their Part 2’s state: You will need to quote your Yorkshire Bank solicitors panel number.
