My fiance and I are hoping to acquire a house in Nannerch and are in fact using a Nannerch conveyancing practice. Within the last couple of days our lawyer has sent a preliminary report and documents to look through in anticipation of exchanging contracts shortly. Accord Mortgages Ltd have this evening contacted us to advise us that there is now an issue as our Nannerch conveyancer is not on their conveyancing panel. What do we do from here?

When purchasing a property with mortgage finance it is standard for the purchasers' lawyers to also act for the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a law firm has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the law firm to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the firm has to satisfy and indeed some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your property lawyer should contact your lender and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on the lender’s conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Nannerch solicitors, in which case it will likely add costs, and it may delay matters as you are adding another lawyer into the mix.

Should you be unsure, ask your conveyancing practitioner to advise.
