Principality solicitor panel

If you are buying a property with a Principality mortgage, you need a solicitor on the Principality solicitor panel. This is a conveyancer who is authorised by the lender to handle everything relating to the purchase on their behalf.

At Lockings Solicitors, we are members of the Principality solicitor panel, meaning we can deal directly with them to provide the legal information they will require. When the time comes to complete your purchase, we will be able to order your mortgage advance from them directly.

When you apply for a Principality mortgage, you can provide them with our name, and they will then be able to send your mortgage offer to us when it is available.

We are accredited by the Law Society, holding their Conveyancing Quality Scheme award, and are also routinely recommended by our clients to their friends and families.

Our conveyancing solicitors are known for providing a prompt and efficient service, and can move you up to three weeks faster than the average conveyancing time.

We offer a FREE initial chat so that you can ask us any questions you may have about purchasing a property with a Principality mortgage. Call us on 01482 300 200, email us at welcome@lockings.co.uk or fill in our Free Online Enquiry and we will call you back promptly. We have offices in Beverley, Hull and York and represent clients across the country.

Why choose Lockings Solicitors for conveyancing?

Our clients routinely recommend us after using our services, with 98% of those questioned saying that they would refer us to their friends and families. Reasons our services are sought-after include:

We minimise delays to move you up to three weeks faster – we know that the conveyancing process can seen lengthy and that this is likely to be a stressful time for you. From the start, we work proactively to reduce the time taken at each stage, resulting in a quicker move.

The expertise to handle complications – our conveyancing solicitors have many years of experience, and frequently deal with challenging transactions. We have the legal knowledge to resolve problems efficiently, avoiding the hold-ups that could potentially cause a purchase to fall through.

If you choose a conveyancer who is not on your lender’s panel of approved solicitors, you might need to switch law firms or alternatively, pay for the lender to use their own legal representatives.

How do Lockings Solicitors speed up the conveyancing process?

We always aim to reach the exchange of contracts as quickly as possible. We start by working with our clients early on, sending out the initial paperwork straightaway. If you are thinking of buying a house and you would like an early completion, you can contact us now, and we can start the onboarding process.

If you have a related sale, this can be especially advantageous. There are lengthy property information forms to fill in, and you may have to find paperwork to accompany them, such as guarantees and planning permissions. By dealing with these now, we can make sure that we are in a position to issue the contract package to your buyer’s solicitor as soon as your chain is complete.

During the conveyancing transaction, we always keep in touch with the other parties. This prevents issues from being forgotten. If we are expecting information or replies to enquiries, we will follow up regularly until we receive them.

Similarly, when we deal with a sale, we will prompt the buyer’s solicitors to ensure they have everything they require from us. If they request information, we will deal with it promptly. We also liaise regularly with the estate agents, who in turn are able to keep an eye on the rest of the chain.

By working in this way, we regularly move our clients up to three weeks faster than the national average.

How do I get started with a house purchase?

You can contact us now, and we will help you with the onboarding process. The first steps include providing us with documentation to verify your identity. We can set you up with our online conveyancing portal, if you wish to use that. Alternatively, you are welcome to send us the paperwork we will need, or come into one of our offices in person.

You should give our details to any estate agents dealing with your purchase and any related sale, and also to your mortgage lender.

If you have any questions, please feel free to call us, and we will be pleased to assist however we can.
