My wife and I are acquiring a studio flat in Queen's Park. At the time of instructing our solicitor, they assured us that they were on all mainstream mortgage company panels. Our mortgage broker emailed today to say that they are not on the Coventry BS approved list. Were it to be true, what should we do? Should we just choose a new conveyancer that is on their panel or should we cover the costs for separate representation, with Coventry BS selecting their own approved conveyancing practitioner.

When buying a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is standard for the purchaser’s solicitors to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a lawyer has to be on that lender's list of approved lawyers. An application has to be made by the lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict conditions which the solicitor has to satisfy. Some lenders now insist their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your solicitor should contact Coventry BS to discover if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You don't have to instruct a firm on Coventry BS's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Queen's Park solicitors, in which case it will likely add costs, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another conveyancing practitioner into the mix.
