Is it the case that all Pelsall CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) solicitors are on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel?
It is true that some lenders now use the accreditation scheme as the kick off point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. The Law Society’s CQS accreditation however gives no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. That being said,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitors wishing to remain on their approved list of firms.
is it true that all Pelsall solicitors on the Nationwide conveyancing panel are governed by the SRA?
As solicitors, in order to be on the Nationwide approved list of solicitors they would need to be regulated by the SRA. Many lenders do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in such a situation the firms would be overseen by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
I have instructed a Pelsall conveyancer having made sure that they are on the Skipton conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Skipton will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Skipton will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your property lawyer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Pelsall postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Skipton, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Pelsall.
