A friend advised me that in buying a property in Llanbedrog there may be a number of restrictions as to what one can do in terms of external changes to a property. Is this right?

Your solicitor should check the registered title as conveyancing in Llanbedrog can sometimes identify restrictions in the title documents which prevent categories of changes or necessitated the permission of another owner. Some extensions require local authority planning consent and approval under the building regulations. Some areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or affect extensions. It would be sensible to check these things with a surveyor before you commit yourself to a purchase.
I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Yorkshire BS. Is it usual for Yorkshire BS to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Llanbedrog is approved on their conveyancing panel? Yorkshire BS have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their Professional Indemnity Insurance Schedule.
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Yorkshire BS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

Should one as executor remove a departed person's name from the title register for a property in Llanbedrog?
If a Llanbedrog property is jointly owned and one of the proprietors passes away, their name will not automatically be removed from the title deeds. It is not necessary to remove their name as when it comes to a sale your lawyer would just need to evidence why the other owner is missing from the contract, such as a grant of probate.
With the aim of making the sale conveyancing smoother in the future you can apply to have the deceased party removed from the title register by applying to the land registry with evidence of the death. There is no land registry fee payable.
