I had intended to instruct a property lawyer in Llanberis for our house purchase. Our financial adviser has since advised us that our mortgage lenders Nationwide Building Society won't deal with them. Surely this is unduly restrictive?
Before the recession most banks had an appetite for risk which was higher than today. Almost all Llanberis conveyancing firms would have been on many mortgage company panels.

Consequently, mortgage companies have regularly sought more data from law firms regarding their operations and their employees as well as establishing certain criteria such a completing on a minimum number of transactions.

I am aiming to move property in December. Will my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you recommend a removal company in Llanberis. Conveyancing firm was chosen before I stumbled across your site.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from your selling agent but this should only be done when the vendors conveyancers inform the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be given over. Subsequently you can inform the removal men that you are ready to move in. We do not recommend a specific removal company but can assist you in locating a residential property solicitor in Llanberis or a lawyer with expertise in conveyancing in Llanberis.
After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Llanberis. My mortgage broker suggested a lawyer. I paid an upfront payment of £225. A couple of days later, the solicitor called me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Clydesdale panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
I completed on my flat on 10 September and the transaction details is not yet registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Llanberis said it should be dealt with in a couple of weeks. Are properties in Llanberis particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Llanberis is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales.

At present in the region of 80% of submission are fully dealt with within two weeks but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration occurs once the buyer has moved in to the premises therefore registration formalities is not usually primary concern yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
