The Barnoldswick conveyancing firm handling our Barnoldswick conveyancing has spotted a discrepancy between the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation survey and what is revealed within the legal papers for the property. My lawyer informs me that he is duty bound to check that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my solicitor’s course or action legitimate?
Your property 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.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Barnoldswick. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the remaining lease term.
Assuming the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Barnoldswick - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

The best form of lease structure is a share of the freehold. In this scenario the leaseholders enjoy control and even though a managing agent is frequently employed if it is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent acts for the leaseholders themselves. Does the lease include onerous restrictions? Generally speaking the cost for major works tend not to be included within maintenance charges, albeit that some managing agents in Barnoldswick ask leaseholders to pay into a reserve fund created for the specific purpose of building a fund for larger repairs or maintenance.
I am about to exchange buying a house in Barnoldswick but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have negotiated reparation from the owner of five thousand pounds by way of a deduction in the price.

The conveyancer being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel is obliged to inform the lender of any changes to the sale figure. In the event that you did not allow your conveyancing practitioner to disclose the price change to your lender then they would have no choice but to discontinue acting for you and the mortgage company.
