The Amesbury conveyancing firm handling our Amesbury conveyancing has uncovered an inconsistency between the assumptions in the home valuation survey and what is revealed within the title deeds. My lawyer has advised that he needs to check that the bank is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my solicitor’s course or action right?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications 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.

After reviewing online forums for a high-quality lawyer in Amesbury, many comment that I must look for a CQS kitemarked lawyer. Can you explain what CQS is?
The Law Society's Conveyancing Quality Scheme is the recognised kitemark for legal experts in buying or selling property, trusted by some of the UK's biggest mortgage companies. Four years ago the Conveyancing Quality Scheme was officially recognised by the Legal Ombudsman. The scheme does not cover licenced conveyancers. Amesbury is one of the numerous areas in England and Wales where there are CQS lawyers.
I understand that there are debates on Chancel Insurance on online forums. Do I need chancel insurance when acquiring a residence in Amesbury? or Apparently there is a law dating back centuries that could mean that homeowners residing in a parish church boundary will be compelled to contribute towards maintenance to the chancel in proximity to the church. Is this appropriate for conveyancing in Amesbury?
Unless a previous acquisition of the premises took place post 12 October 2013 you can expect lawyers delivering conveyancing in Amesbury to remain recommending a chancel search and or chancel repair liability insurance.
4 months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Amesbury took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
