The Gosport conveyancing firm handling our Gosport conveyancing has spotted an inconsistency when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation report and what is in the conveyancing documents. My solicitor informs me that he is obliged to check that the bank is happy with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my lawyer’s stance right?
Your conveyancing practitioner 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.

I am buying a new build house in Gosport benefiting from help to buy. The developers refused to budge the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative advised me not inform my lawyer about this deal as it would affect my mortgage with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer 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%.
