Me and my partner are about to exchange buying a house in Burnham but as a result of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree compensation from the current proprietors of £2k taking the form of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of amending the contract yet Co-operative will not permit this. Why were they informed?
Your conveyancing practitioner being on the Co-operative conveyancing panel is duty bound to inform Co-operative of any variations to the purchase price. If you prohibit your property lawyer to report the price change to Co-operative then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Co-operative and you would have to appoint a new conveyancing practitioner for your conveyancing in Burnham.
