Our Fairlop lawyer has identified a discrepancy when comparing the information in the home valuation survey and what is in the title deeds. My solicitor informs me that he needs to check that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s course or action right?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions 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.

Can you offer any advice when it comes to appointing a Fairlop conveyancing firm to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?
If you are instructing a conveyancer for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Fairlop conveyancing practice) it is imperative that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing.
