Have you tried calling your Harrold lawyer about this?. They maintain a central record lender panel numbers.
I have a decision in principle. The bank mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to instruct their panel solicitor as I would prefer to instruct a Harrold based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel solicitors if you take up the "fee-free" deal. Contact the lender to determine if they make available a cash alternative. In the past a few mortgage companies offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Harrold.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Harrold is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?
Flying freeholds in Harrold are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Harrold you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Harrold may determine 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.
