Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Frizington

The Frizington conveyancing firm handling our Frizington conveyancing has spotted a difference between the surveyor’s assumptions in the home valuation report and what is revealed within the legal papers for the property. My solicitor informs me that he is obliged to check that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s course or action correct?

Your lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.

Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the completion advance to the owner’s solicitors, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be able to pick up the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property.
