My wife and I are due to exchange buying a house in Barton under Needwood but as a consequence of damage from a small fire at the property I have was able negotiate compensation from the seller in the sum of £3k in the form of a deduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of amending the contract yet Principality are not allowing this. Why were they involved?
The property lawyer that is on the Principality conveyancing panel is obliged to disclose to Principality of any variations to the purchase price. If you prohibit your solicitor to report the price change to Principality then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Principality and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Barton under Needwood.
