A selection of banks and building societies now utilise CQS as the kick off point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander.

We previously chose conveyancing lawyers locally in Llanon on the Yorkshire BS solicitor panel. They are now charging me a separate fee for dealing with the Yorkshire BS mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Yorkshire BS?
Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your conveyancing practitioner can levy a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by Yorkshire BS but by your Llanon conveyancer. Plenty of firms on the Yorkshire BS panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.
We have agreed to purchase a house in Llanon. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender TSB be concerned?
Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with TSB your lawyer must follow the conveyancing requirements set out in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for TSB. The CML Handbook sets out minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to TSB where a lease fails to satisfy these specifications. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not restricted to Llanon.
I bought my house on 7 October and my personal details are still not registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Llanon said it would be dealt with inside ten days. Are properties in Llanon uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Llanon registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry have to notify any 3rd persons or bodies.

Registration takes place once the purchaser is living at the premises thus registration formalities is not typically an essential issue yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor should contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
