We are getting the release of further monies on our home loan from Bank of Ireland as we wish to carry out renovations to our house in Nunhead. Are we obliged to appoint a nearby Nunhead solicitor on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel to deal with the paperwork?

I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in December 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Clydesdale are being a right pain. The Nunhead solicitor who is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Clydesdale are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Clydesdale have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Clydesdale have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Clydesdale may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Barclays have agreed my mortgage in principle, my offer on a flat in Nunhead has been accepted, what happens next?
Your estate agent will want to be informed of your property lawyer's details (be sure the conveyancing practitioners are on the lender’s panel). Call up Barclays or your broker and finish off any appropriate forms. Barclays will appoint a valuer who will get in touch with the selling agent or seller to arrange an appointment. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight for the mortgage offer to be issued. Barclays will issue the offer to you and your conveyancing practitioners. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Nunhead.
