Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Mudeford. Is there a reason why all Mudeford conveyancers are not on all bank panels?

A decade ago most mortgage companies exhibited an attitude to risk which is different from today. The FSA in 2010 conducted a thematic review into fraud which concluded: know the conveyancers on your panel. Consequently, mortgage companies have since requiredmore information from law firms concerning their processes and the staff who work for them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum number of transactions. Hundreds of firms have been removed from lender panels even though they had an exemplary track record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Such firms were never going to satisfy the criteria of amount of transactions the lenders insisted on.
