I plan on buying property in Connahs Quay. My Solicitor has never been on on the lender solicitor list. Is it possible for me to appoint my Connahs Quay conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the lender approved list?
Various options include

- Appoint a fresh conveyancing practitioner to act in the purchase, obviously checking they are on the bank conveyancing panel.
- Convince your lawyer to seek to join the mortgage company panel

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am unseasoned as FTB of a ground floor flat in Connahs Quay. Do I collect the keys to the premises on the completion date from my lawyer? If this is the case, I will instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Connahs Quay?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will electronically transfer the purchase money to the owner’s solicitors, and once they have received this, you should be invited to collect the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property. This tends to happen early afternoon.

I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Connahs Quay lawyer is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel.
I am buying a new build house in Connahs Quay with a mortgage from Platform Home Loans Ltd. The builders refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The property agent suggested that I not disclose to my solicitor about the side-deal as it will impact my mortgage with Platform Home Loans Ltd. Should I keep quiet?.
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%.
