I'm buying my first flat in Dursley with a mortgage from Birmingham Midshires. The sellers refused to budge the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The house builders rep told me not disclose to my lawyer about this extras as it may affect my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.
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%.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Dursley is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Dursley are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Dursley you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Dursley 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 residence.
Do I need to be concerned by estate agents that I am dealing with are suggesting an online conveyancing firm rather than a local Dursley conveyancing practice?
As is the case with lots of professional services, often suggestions from relatives can be very helpful.

Sometimes these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but sometimes there exists a financial incentive behind the recommendation. You have the right to appoint your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that the majority of banks operate an approved list of lawyers you are obliged to use for the lender aspect of your conveyancing.
Should one as executor remove a deceased person's name from the title register for a house in Dursley?
If a Dursley property is jointly owned and one of the proprietors dies, their name will not immediately be removed from the title deeds. It is not necessary to remove their name as when it comes to a sale your lawyer would simply be required to evidence as to the reason the co proprietor is not a party to the conveyance, such as the probate documents.
With a view to making the sale conveyancing simpler for the sale of the property you can arrange to have the deceased person erased from the title by submitting an application to HM Land Registry with proof of the death. There is no land registry fee payable.
