Do I need to visit the offices of the solicitor to sign the mortgage deed? If so, I will choose one who does conveyancing in Brecon so that I can attend their offices if required.
Most approved lawyers for lenders undertake their communications through Royal Mail, e-mail or over the phone.

My wife and I are planning on selling our property in Brecon and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A high street Brecon conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers used an internet conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Brecon. We have lived in Brecon for many years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)
I'm purchasing a new build house in Brecon with a mortgage from Alliance & Leicester . The builders refused to move on the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The house builders rep told me not to tell my conveyancer about this deal as it will adversely affect my mortgage with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.
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.
