My wife and I are due to complete on the purchase of a property in Felling and Pelaw but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the owner of £3k by way of a deduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process but Aldermore are not allowing this. Should they have been notified?
Any property lawyer that is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel is duty bound to inform Aldermore of any amendments to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your conveyancer to report the price change to Aldermore then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Aldermore and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Felling and Pelaw.
The Felling and Pelaw conveyancing firm that I appointed last week on my house acquisition in Felling and Pelaw have suddenly shut down. They were on acting for me because I had to have a lawyer on the Principality conveyancing panel and my family Felling and Pelaw lawyer was not. I paid them money on account. What are my options?
Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then inform them immediately so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Principality conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors may be able to help.
