Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Llantwit Major

Me and my partner are soon to complete buying a house in Llantwit Major but as a consequence of wreckage from a small fire at the property I have managed to agree recompense from the owner of £2k by way of a adjustment in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of a side agreement yet Bank of Ireland will not permit this. Should they have been involved?

Any property lawyer being on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel is required to advise Bank of Ireland of any variations to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your conveyancing practitioner to report the reduction to Bank of Ireland then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Bank of Ireland and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Llantwit Major.
