Much to our surprise we have been advised by our lender that my Talsarnau solicitor is not on the mortgage company Solicitor panel. How can I be certain that this is indeed the case?
Your first step should be to contact your Talsarnau lawyer directly. You lawyer should advise you what has happened. Where they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the conveyancing panel for your bank.

I am purchasing my first flat in Talsarnau with a loan from Lloyds TSB Bank. The developers would not budge the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The property agent advised me not reveal to my solicitor about the extras as it would adversely affect my mortgage with the bank. 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 issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Talsarnau is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can impart?
Flying freeholds in Talsarnau are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Talsarnau you must be sure that your lawyer goes 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 Talsarnau 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 residence.

My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the property agent advised that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct their recommended conveyancers as they want a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Talsarnau
We suspect that the seller is not behind this demand. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the owners direct and make the point that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you are going to appoint your preferred Talsarnau conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a kickback or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by head office.
