My wife and I expecting to exchange buying a house in Henleaze but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have negotiated reparation from the current proprietors of five thousand pounds taking the form of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process yet the lender will not agree to this. Why were they informed?
The property lawyer being on the lender conveyancing panel is duty bound to inform the bank of any changes to the purchase amount. If you were to refuse your conveyancing practitioner to notify the reduction to your lender then they would have to refrain from acting for you and the mortgage company.
