Changes to our conveyancing process for specialist buy to let

We’ve made a change to our conveyancing process. Landlords can now appoint their own conveyancer to act for specialist buy to let purchase applications, subject to meeting the below criteria from 21 August 2023.

We’ve listened to feedback from our trusted broker partners and made this change to help create a better experience when placing specialist buy to let cases with us.

This replaces the current process of obtaining a quotation from a select group of firms for this type of product.

Our specialist buy to let conveyancing criteria
  • Conveyancers must be registered with us via Lender Exchange
  • The firm must have a minimum of two approved Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) managers or two Council for Licensed Conveyancers (CLC) authorised managers. You can check these at lawsociety.org.uklawscot.org.uk or clc-uk.org.uk
  • They must have Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS) accreditation (this is applicable to Solicitors only)
  • A minimum Professional Indemnity (PI) insurance cover of £2 million. For applications above £2 million, the conveyancer must at all times retain professional indemnity insurance cover which is adequate and appropriate for the practice, considering in particular the nature and value of the work they are undertaking
What do I need to know?
  • We can add a new firm to the panel when requested, subject to meeting the above criteria
  • Firms will act on a dual representation basis – acting for the borrower and the bank
  • Firms will be sent offer documentation as standard but borrowers can instruct their firm beforehand
  • All fees are negotiated directly between the borrower and the acting solicitor
  • Assisted legal fees on remortgages will remain under the current process through our managed panel firms
