I am looking for value for money property lawyer. Should I go for for an online conveyancer or a high street Chinatown conveyancing solicitor?
Existing third party relationships are another important factor to consider when choosing conveyancing solicitors. Chinatown law firms benefit from connections with lenders and property, local authorities, valuers and other law firms meaning you will move in shortest possible time. Hosting years of intelligence of the local area also helps too.
Our Chinatown lawyer has uncovered a discrepancy when comparing the information in the valuation report and what is revealed within the title deeds. My lawyer informs me that he must ensure that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my conveyancer’s approach correct?
Your lawyer 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. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.

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.
