Issues to consider when your lawyer is not on your Lender's panel

Panels of solicitors are maintained by mortgage lenders in order to undertake legal work on mortgaged properties. Lenders have also reduced the size of their panels, setting more restrictive criteria for membership. If your Herne Bay conveyancing solicitor is not on your preferred lender's panel, then the lender will not instruct that firm to act in connection with the mortgage. You then have a choice:

  • Obtain a mortgage from a less restrictive lender
  • Instruct a solicitor whom your lender accepts
  • Pay the lenders costs for their solicitor in addition to your own

It is usually cheaper to have the same firm act both for you and your lender, and carry out all the conveyancing work in connection with a purchase and the mortgage. Be aware of the following, if you choose to remain with your first choice of law firm:

  • You must now pay the lender's costs in addition to your own
  • You will not get any priority from the lender's solicitors, as they will have many other cases underway, and you are unable contact these solicitors directly

Disadvantaged Areas in Herne Bay

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. For homes bought for less than £150,000, this relief may be available. Above this limit of £150k, nationwide rates apply regardless of whether the property is located within a disadvantaged area. A postcode search will usually determine whether a home being sold for less than the threshold is eligible. However this is not always accurate, and may not work for recently built properties.
