I have an AIP. The bank mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to appoint their panel solicitor as I would much rather appoint a high street conveyancing solicitor in Great Yarmouth?
You should check but the chances are that allocate you one of their panel conveyancers should you want the "fee-free" offer. Call the lender to see if they offer you a monetary alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Great Yarmouth.
I have been told that property searches are the number one reason for stalling in Great Yarmouth house deals. Is there any truth in this?

Local searches are unlikely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Great Yarmouth.

Historically registration occurs once the new owner is living at the premises thus registration formalities is not usually top priority yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
