Me and my partner are about to complete on the purchase of a property in Hatfield but as a result of wreckage from some water damage at the property I have managed to agree reparation from the vendor in the sum of £3k by way of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of amending the contract but UBS will not agree to this. Why were they notified?
Any conveyancer that is on the UBS approved list is required to disclose to UBS of any variations to the purchase price. If you prohibit your conveyancer to report the reduction to UBS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, UBS and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Hatfield.
