My Borth Y Gest solicitor has discovered a discrepancy when comparing the information in the home valuation report and what is in the legal papers for the property. My solicitor says that he needs to ensure that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my solicitor’s stance right?
Your property lawyer 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.

In the event that flooding has previously occurred which is not revealed by the owner, then a buyer could issue a legal claim for losses resulting from an misleading answer. A buyer’s conveyancers should also order an environmental search. This should indicate whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional inquiries should be initiated.
