Lloyds Bank will now pay for basic legal work on a property purchase, for those using the Lloyds Bank econveyancing service.

The bank says its new offer will save customers money, as well as also reducing the time it takes to source a legal representative to carry out the conveyancing work needed.

By using the econveyancing service, home buyers can choose from a panel of conveyancers that are recommended based on price, distance or rating. The service also shows the conveyancing costs from the outset.

Andy Mason, mortgages director at Lloyds Bank, said: “Through our mortgage offers, we’re always looking at ways of delighting our customers and giving them more for their money.

“This latest offer will help to ease the financial burden on them whilst helping to make the home buying process as stress free as possible.”
