The Edith Weston conveyancing firm handling our Edith Weston conveyancing has discovered a discrepancy when comparing the information in the valuation survey and what is revealed within the conveyancing documents. My solicitor has advised that he needs to ensure that the bank is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my lawyer’s stance appropriate?
Your lawyer 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 you.

I'm the single beneficiary of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Edith Weston. The Edith Weston property was put into my name in June. I plan to dispose of the property. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship could be treated the same way as though I had purchased the house in June. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The CML handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be caught by that. Most mortgage companies would take a practical view as this provision primarily exists to identify subsales or the quick reselling of property.
I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Co-operative. Is it usual for Co-operative to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Edith Weston is approved on their conveyancing panel? Co-operative have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Co-operative to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should discharge the service charge as usual given that all ground rent and maintenance invoices will be apportioned on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
