I am not well enough to travel far from Nunhead. I would like to know the understand why all Nunhead lawyers aren't included on all bank panels?
Lenders point to the fact that solicitor-led fraud is thought to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud every year.The removal of law firms off of lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the FSA in 2011. Its outcome included recommendations for lenders to review their conveyancing panels, which kicked off a major policy change in the sector. It resulted in banks and building societies purging less reputable firms off their books of approved conveyancing practitioners .
I have justdiscovered that Action Conveyancing have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Nunhead for a purchase of a freehold house 12 months ago. How can I check that my home is in my name in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest method to check if the premises is registered to you, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Nunhead conveyancing specialists.

My cousin has recommend that I instruct his conveyancing solicitors in Nunhead. Should I find my own property lawyer?
Much as we are happy to recommend a Nunhead conveyancing lawyer the best way to choose a conveyancing solicitor is to seek recommendations from friends or family who have actually previously instructed the solicitor you're contemplating using.
Me and my wife have just had an offer accepted on a flat and had meeting on Wednesday with Nationwide for the mortgage. They advised me that when it comes to appointing a conveyancing practitioner that if they are not on their approved list of solicitors then we will have to pay out a further fee of £200. This is is due to the fact that they would then have to appoint a solicitor to act on their behalf in addition to the one we select for ourselves and we will be on the hook for their fees. I have asked Nationwide to send me with a list so I can obtain estimates only from their approved solicitors but was told that I need to check with each individual lawyer to see if they are on the panel. Is there a simple way of finding out who is on a lender panel?
You can enquire of Nationwide what their criteria for panel membership is for a solicitor.Thereafter ask the lawyer of your choice whether they fit that criteria and have they acted on mortgages for Nationwide before. If the answer to those is yes, then just double check with Nationwide. Alternatively please make use of our search tool and we should be able to locate a conveyancing practitioner in Nunhead on the approved list for Nationwide.
