The consequences of your solicitor not being on your Mortgage Lender's panel

Panels of solicitors are maintained by mortgage lenders in order to undertake legal work on mortgaged properties. However, mortgage lenders have started removing firms which do not carry out much work for them, or have not met certain additional criteria. If your lender does not accept your chosen solicitor, you must make a decision as to how to proceed; you can either select a different lender or solicitor. It is possible to continue with your original choices, but your lender will expect you to pay for the legal costs relating to the mortgage. Bear in mind that it is usually more efficient and less expensive for the same firm act for you and your lender.

Cricklewood Stamp Duty Relief

Nearly two thousand areas in England and Wales are eligible for stamp duty relief. Local government wards or electoral divisions are used to define the boundaries of these. These wards do not always coincide with postcode districts, so the postcode search tool cannot always be relied on. Above £150k, no stamp duty relief may be available. For a purchase below the threshold, it is worth making a simple postcode search to find out if a property is in a disadvantaged area. 'Mixed use' property, including a shop with an apartment above, may also receive stamp duty relief.
