Your conveyancer 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.

I purchased my flat on 5 March and the transaction details are still not on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Didsbury expressed confidence that it would be registered inside ten days. Are transfers in Didsbury uniquely lengthy to register?
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Didsbury registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any other parties. Currently approximately 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Historically registration is effected after the purchaser has moved in to the premises therefore an expedited registration is not typically an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
