I am not well enough to travel far from Barnetby le Wold. What is the rationale as to why all Barnetby le Wold solicitors aren't automatically on all lender panels?
As inequitable as it may appear for lenders to limit who can act for them, from the public’s or solicitor’s standpoint, the flip side is that mortgage companies are increasingly anxious and regard it imperative to defend themselves against illegal activities. As a result of this concern banks are limiting their conveyancing panel to a size that they are happy to control.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with RBS. Barnetby le Wold conveyancing solicitors were chosen. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from RBS?
There is no definitive answer here. Have RBS done the survey? Have you advised RBS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the RBS conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
Our sealed bid on a property in Barnetby le Wold has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The owners have put an offer on a flat, but it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Barnetby le Wold. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with Lloyds going?
It is normal to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses too early (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Barnetby le Wold conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you must ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel. Regarding the subsequent phase this very much dictated by the specifics of your case, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. During a rising market many home buyers would apply for the mortgage with Lloyds and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their property lawyer to proceed with the conveyancing in Barnetby le Wold.
I am purchasing a new build house in Barnetby le Wold with the aid of help to buy. The developers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The sale representative advised me not inform my conveyancer about the extras as it may put at risk my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
