Taylor Wimpey Mortgage

Hi,
I am thinking of taking advantage of the new HomeBuy scheme and have been looking at some properties. I have placed my final decision on an apartment built by Taylor-Wimpey. The problem is that they will not let me use my own financial advisor/get my own mortgage/solicitor. Surely this is not legal and a home buyer should be free to use who they choose? Help

their excuse that other advisors would not have experience in the homebuy scheme is very thin imho
good luck0
