Some advice if I may. My Beddgelert solicitor is assuring me that she is duty bound toapply for Beddgelert conveyancing searches resulting from the fact thatthe firm are on the HSBCconveyancing panel. Is my conveyancer correct?
Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with a lender your conveyancing practitioner has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancing practitioner would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the CML Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Beddgelert conveyancing searches.

I bought my house on 3 November and my personal details are still not registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Beddgelert said it would be formalised in a couple of weeks. Are transfers in Beddgelert particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Beddgelert registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies. As of today approximately three quarters of submission are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Registration takes place once the new owner has moved in to the premises so post completion formalities is not typically top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I'm buying a new build house in Beddgelert with a loan from Britannia. The sellers would not move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The house builders rep told me not to tell my solicitor about this side-deal as it will impact my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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.
