We are looking to buy a flat and need a conveyancing solicitor in Egremont who is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Can you recommend a local solicitor?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Nationwide . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Egremont.
I have an AIP. The lender mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to appoint their panel conveyancer as I would much rather use a Egremont based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel lawyers where you accept the "fee-free" deal. Speak to the bank and see if they allow a monetary alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as a further option in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Egremont.
I have been told that property searches are the primary cause of hinderance in Egremont house deals. Is that correct?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released determinations of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the top 10 causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Searches are unlikely to feature in any slowing down conveyancing in Egremont.
I need to instruct a conveyancing lawyer in Egremont for my remortgage. Can I review a solicitor's record with the legal regulator?

Having used your search tool I can't find the lawyer I was hoping to instruct as being on the lender conveyancing panel. My lawyer has said that they are on the mortgage company approved panel. How can I be sure given that they are not listed on your directory?
Not all firms are yet listed on our lender panel search tool which is still relatively new. Law firms are listing on a daily basis and it is probably the case that your lawyer is on the mortgage company conveyancing lawyer and you should probably take them at their word. Please do feel free to suggest that they completing their listing on our site as it would only cost them £1 a month to list themselves as being on the lender solicitor panel.
