My wife and I are intent on acquiring a maisonette in Brondesbury. My Conveyancer has never been on on the bank conveyancing panel. Can I still appoint my Brondesbury conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the mortgage company panel?
One will need to appoint a property lawyer to deal with the formalities if you need a mortgage to purchase your home. They will conduct all the appropriate investigations on the property, make sure that you’re properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the required mortgage paperwork is in order. You could appoint a Brondesbury solicitor of your choosing. Nevertheless, if the property lawyer appointed is not on the lender approved list supplemental costs will be levied as separate legal representation will be required by them. Bank panel applications may be submitted, so provided your conveyancer has not historically sought membership they should take the opportunity to apply.

My grandmother passed away last year and as sole heir and executor I was left the property in Brondesbury. The house had a small mortgage remaining of approximately £4500. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to Barclays, pay off the mortgage. Is this allowed?
If you plan to refinance then Barclays will require that you use a conveyancer on the Barclays conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your Barclays conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the Barclays mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.

Please help - my lawyer says that flying freehold insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Brondesbury?
The right level of flying freehold indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Birmingham Midshires and Skipton Building Society. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to members of the public take out such insurances.
I am buying a property in Brondesbury. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Yorkshire BS be concerned?
Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Yorkshire BS your lawyer must follow the formal requirements outlined in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Yorkshire BS.

The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not limited to Brondesbury.
I am purchasing a new build house in Brondesbury with the aid of help to buy. The developers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative suggested that I not disclose to my solicitor about this side-deal as it could jeopardize my mortgage with Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. 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.
