I have todaydiscovered that Action Conveyancing have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Spondon for a purchase of a freehold house 10 months ago. How can I establish that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?

I'm purchasing a new build house in Spondon with a loan from Santander. The sellers refused to budge the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not disclose to my conveyancer about the deal as it could put at risk my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Spondon is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?
Flying freeholds in Spondon are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Spondon 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 Spondon 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.
A couple of weeks ago I was informed by my mortgage company that their approved lawyers operate no move no charge basis for conveyancing in Spondon. My purchase aborted and now the solicitors have requested search fees! They are claiming that the fees are seperate!
Spondon conveyancing search charges are separate expenses not solicitors costs as these are payable to independent parties.
