Solicitor Not On Lenders Panel

When buying a property with a mortgage, you need to choose a conveyancer who is approved by your bank. If you are concerned that you have a solicitor not on lenders panels, we can help. At Lockings Solicitors, we are approved by all major high street lenders, meaning we can represent them as well as you in your purchase.

Should you end up with a solicitor not on your lender’s panel, you would either have to move to a different conveyancer or your lender would need to instruct their own legal team, which you would be required to pay for.

At Lockings Solicitors, we are highly rated by our clients and independently accredited by the Law Society. With many years of experience in the property market, we have the expertise to deal with all types of purchases, including complex, time-sensitive, and high-value transactions.

If you are concerned that you have a solicitor not on lenders panel lists, call us today. We are on the approved list of all major mortgage providers, and offer a FREE initial chat so that you can ask us any questions you may have about buying or selling a property.

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 in freehold sales and purchases. We also deal with leasehold sales and purchases and newbuild purchases for local properties.

Why choose Lockings Solicitors as your conveyancing solicitors?

We move you quickly

We know that once you find your new home, you will want to move without delay. We move our clients 3 weeks quicker to completion than the national average.

Our conveyancers always deal swiftly with correspondence and follow up with other parties where necessary to ensure they are also progressing the transaction.

By keeping on top of everything and making regular checks, we avoid the hold-ups that can happen if the parties do not stay in contact with each other.

We have the expertise to deal promptly with complications

Should legal difficulties arise, our experienced conveyancers will know exactly how to handle them. Whether it is a complication in the legal title, a missing document, or an issue revealed in the search results, we will take immediate action to resolve the situation, reducing the risk of delays.

Regular updates always provided

Moving house can be stressful, and we always aim to reduce the pressure on you. We will provide you with regular updates and make sure that you know what stage your purchase has reached and what needs to happen next. If we need a document or the deposit from you, we will let you know straightaway so that you can make sure we have what we need.

Our solicitors are on lenders panels for all major mortgage providers

If you have a solicitor not on lenders panels of approved conveyancers, you are likely to experience delays, and you could be asked to pay for the lender’s own legal team. At Lockings Solicitors, we are on the approved panels of all major mortgage lenders, so that we can represent them alongside you in the purchase.

This ensures a seamless transaction, and when it is time to complete your purchase, we can order your mortgage advance directly from the bank.

We hold independent accreditation and 800+ Google reviews

We are accredited by the Law Society under their Conveyancing Quality Scheme, which confirms our high standards in providing good legal advice, outstanding client care, and strong risk management. We also have over 800 reviews on Google, and are rated as excellent by our clients, who regularly recommend us to their friends and families.

Our services are great value for money

We offer great value for money, with our services provided by expert conveyancing solicitors with many years of experience in the sector. To enquire about conveyancing costs, call us now, and we will be happy to provide you with a comprehensive conveyancing quote, including any necessary additional expenses such as search fees and Stamp Duty.

Easy onboarding and a secure online conveyancing portal

We make it as easy as possible for you to use our conveyancing service, and we offer a secure online conveyancing portal that you can use if you wish to provide us with the information we will need from you at the start of the transaction.

Exceptional client service

We are known for the high level of client service we provide, and we are always happy to discuss matters during a purchase, replying to your questions and explaining any legal issues that might arise.

We offer flexible availability to make it as easy as possible for you to contact us, whether this is by phone, email, videolink, or in person at one of our offices.

How to get started with a property purchase

If you will be buying a property, you can speak to us now, and we will let you have a no-obligation conveyancing quote. If you would like to go ahead, we can provide you with the initial forms to fill in. This will enable us to get a head start on the transaction, which can help to cut the time taken to reach the exchange of contracts in due course.

We will need to verify your identity and set up a file. If you are also tying in a sale, we will let you have the property information form and fixtures and fittings list to be completed. It is particularly important to deal with this early on, as there may be additional documents that you need to find to accompany the forms, such as window guarantees and planning permissions.

Once you have found a property to buy and had your offer accepted, you can give our details to the estate agent, and also to your mortgage lender.

If you have any questions or you are ready to fill in the initial forms call us now.

Ms Adele Kirk at Locking Solicitors in Beverley was brilliant from start to finish. She was professional, approachable, and kept me informed at every stage, making everything feel much more straightforward and less stressful. Adele took the time to explain things clearly, answered my questions promptly, and made me feel well supported throughout. I’m extremely grateful for her help and would happily recommend Adele and the team.

Non pressurised professional service at all times. Having to put a parent into care is something no one should have to deal with so having a reliant service behind me was so reassuring 👏🏻

I used Lockings for my hose sale and purchase. I highly recommend these solicitors, from the ease of obtaining the initial quote, through the selling and buying process of two properties, the staff kept me informed and updated . Once I had sold my property, I then went out and offered on a new property, which required a quick sale , Lockings stepped up and within 5 weeks the property was purchased. Excellent service at every stage and went above and beyond when I needed help ! Thank you.

Adele and Sam were beyond helpful when helping me navigate a first house purchase whilst going through a divorce. Nothing was too much trouble and every question asked, of which there were many, never felt like a burden. Quick, efficient communication and a smooth purchase made a very stressful situation somewhat more manageable. Thank you Lockings!
