My apartment in Melton Mowbray is up for sale and I have a purchaser. Does the property lawyer have to be on the Aldermore conveyancing panel in order to deal with repayment of my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Aldermore conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their specifications fairly frequently in recent years.

My solicitor has informed me that lack of building regulations insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Melton Mowbray?

The appropriate level of lack of building regulations indemnity insurance depends on who your lender is. It would differ for example between Yorkshire Building Society and Bank of Scotland. Conveyancing solicitors as opposed to borrowers take out such insurances.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Nottingham. Melton Mowbray conveyancing solicitors have been instructed. How long does it take for Nottingham to send the offer to the conveyancer?

Some lenders take longer than others. Have Nottingham done the valuation? Have you informed Nottingham as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Nottingham conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

My offer was accepted on a property in Melton Mowbray on 28/11/2025, valuation was booked five days after, received a clean bill of health. Solicitor instructed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to HSBC and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Are HSBC entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?

Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for HSBC to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the HSBC conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
