Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Sturminster Newton. What is the rationale as to why all Sturminster Newton conveyancers aren't included on all lender panels?
A decade ago most mortgage companies displayed an approach to risk which differs from the current day. The financial regulator in 2010 carried out a thematic review into property fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the solicitors on your panel. Accordingly, lenders have subsequently requiredmore information from law firms concerning their operations and the staff employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum volume of transactions. Thousands of firms have found themselves removed from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy track record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms found it impossible satisfy the criteria of volume of transactions the lenders set.

As far as conveyancing in Sturminster Newton is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Registration takes place after the buyer is living at the premises therefore registration formalities is not always an essential issue yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer can contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
