The Hoole conveyancing firm handling our Hoole conveyancing has spotted a discrepancy when comparing the information in the valuation survey and what is revealed within the title deeds. My lawyer has advised that he is obliged to check that the bank is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my solicitor’s stance correct?
Your solicitor must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions 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.
We're in Hoole, FTBs purchasing with a mortgage (lender is Clydesdale , and our solicitor is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?
The fact that your lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no conveyancer should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.

However, aside from the physical damage, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, adequate building insurance, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.
Conveyancers are not qualified to impart advice on flood risk, however there are a numerous searches that may be carried out by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which can give them a better understanding of the risks in Hoole. The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a standard question of the vendor to determine whether the premises has suffered from flooding. If flooding has previously occurred which is not notified by the owner, then a purchaser could bring a claim for damages resulting from an inaccurate answer. A purchaser’s solicitors will also order an environmental report. This will disclose if there is any known flood risk. If so, additional inquiries should be made.
