The Norwich conveyancing firm handling our Norwich conveyancing has spotted a discrepancy between the surveyor’s assumptions in the home valuation survey and what is in the conveyancing documents. My lawyer has advised that he needs to check that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my lawyer’s approach legitimate?
Your solicitor 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.
