Our Brynmawr lawyer has uncovered an inconsistency when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the home valuation report and what is in the legal papers for the property. My lawyer has advised that he needs to ensure that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s stance correct?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions 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.
If you had a top tip for selecting a conveyancing solicitor in Brynmawr what would it be?
Do not opt for the cheapest Brynmawr conveyancing fees. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to property lawyers.

It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in advance.

I am the single recipient of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Brynmawr. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in February. I want to move. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship could be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in February. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you may be affected by that. Most lenders would take a practical view as this obligation principally exists to identify subsales or the flipping of properties.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
