I am getting a offer of a home loan from Lloyds. My intention is to employ the services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Raglan. Does the Lloyds Solicitor panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Lloyds conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, associated to the Council or Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
Should lawyers ask for money on account for my conveyancing in Raglan?
If you are buying a property in Raglan your lawyer will request that you place them with funds to cover the search fees. Normally this is asked for to cover the fees of the conveyancing searches. When the deposit is as part of the purchase price then this should be required immediately prior to contracts are exchanged. The closing balance that is due will be payable shortly before completion.
we are a couple who are purchasing a purpose built apartment in Raglan with a loan from Coventry Building Society.We would like to retain our Raglan conveyancing practitioner but Coventry Building Society advised that her practice is not on their approved list of firms. we are left little option but to use a Coventry Building Society panel lawyer or keep our preferred solicitor and fork out for a Coventry Building Society panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The loan issued to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers needs to be on the Coventry Building Society conveyancing panel. Until recently, most mortgage companies had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could find 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 lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Coventry Building Society

Taking into account that I am about to spend £400,000 on a garden flat in Raglan I would like to have a conversation with the conveyancer about myhome move ahead of giving the go ahead to the firm. Can this be arranged?
We could not agree more - it is our preference to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you first talking to the conveyancer due to be conducting your conveyancing in Raglan.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - each client is an important person, not a matter reference. The practices that we put you in touch with believe that the fees you are calculated and presented to you for residential conveyancing in Raglan should be the figure that you are charged.
