Shinfield conveyancing for business premises incorporates a wide range of advice, provided by qualified solicitors, relating to business premises.

Commercial conveyancing solicitors can also offer advice on the sale of business assets, commercial mortgages and the termination of leases.

My wife and I are purchasing a ground floor flat in Shinfield. At the time of instructing our conveyancer, they assured us that they were on all major UK mortgage company panels. The mortgage broker called yesterday to say that they don't seem to be on the HSBC approved list. If it turns out to be true, what should we do? Should we just pick a different conveyancer that is on their approved list or should we cover the costs for separate representation, with HSBC appointing their own preferred conveyancer.

When buying a property with mortgage finance it is standard for the buyer’s lawyers to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a solicitor 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 criteria which the lawyer has to meet. Some building societies now insist their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your property lawyer should contact HSBC to find out 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 are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on HSBC's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Shinfield lawyers, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another conveyancing practitioner into the equation.
