I can't travel far from Glyn Ceiriog. What is the rationale as to why all Glyn Ceiriog solicitors are not on all lender panels?
Before the recession most lenders exhibited an attitude to risk which is different from today. The Financial Services Authority in 2010 conducted a thematic review into fraud which concluded: know the property lawyers on your panel. As a result, banks have subsequently looked to extract more information from law firms concerning their processes and the individuals who work for them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum amount of transactions. Hundreds of firms have been excluded from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy track record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms were never going to meet the criteria of volume of transactions the mortgage companies set.

I had a mortgage agreed in principle with TSB. Glyn Ceiriog conveyancing solicitors were chosen. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from TSB?
There is no definitive answer here. Have TSB completed the survey? Have you informed TSB as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the TSB conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Glyn Ceiriog. I have a mortgage agreed with Principality. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Principality, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Principality conveyancing panel.
Bank of Ireland have agreed my mortgage in principle, my bid on a property in Glyn Ceiriog has been accepted, what are the next steps?
Your estate agent will need to be advised as to your property lawyer's details (be sure the lawyers are on the bank’s approved list). Telephone Bank of Ireland or your financial adviser and finalise any relevant paperwork.

Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight for the mortgage offer to be issued. Bank of Ireland will issue the offer to you and your solicitors. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Glyn Ceiriog.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Glyn Ceiriog is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Glyn Ceiriog are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Glyn Ceiriog you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Glyn Ceiriog may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
