We are purchasing a 3 bedroom apartment in Ogmore Vale with a mortgage. We would like to retain our Ogmore Vale lawyer, however the mortgage company says she’s not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the mortgage company panel firms or keep our Ogmore Vale and pay for one of their panel firms to act for them. This feels very unfair; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your Ogmore Vale conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

How does conveyancing in Ogmore Vale differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Ogmore Vale contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because developers in Ogmore Vale tend to purchase the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Ogmore Vale or who has acted in the same development.
