The Holywell conveyancing firm handling our Holywell conveyancing has discovered a difference when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation report and what is revealed within the title deeds. My solicitor informs me that he is obliged to ensure that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my solicitor’s approach right?
