My lawyer says that he is duty bound to ensure that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my conveyancer’s approach legitimate?

Your conveyancing practitioner must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers.

My husband and I have organised the release of further funds on our home loan from Nottingham as we intend to carry out improvements to our house in Bickley. Are we obliged to select a nearby Bickley solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel to deal with the paperwork?

Nottingham would not normally require firms on their conveyancing panel to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Nottingham list.

We expect to receive a DIP from Aldermore this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc).

You will need to appoint Bickley solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Aldermore through the process.

After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Bickley. My financial adviser recommended their conveyancers. I paid an on account payment of £225. Not long after, the conveyancing practitioner called me to say that they were not on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
