My wife and I are soon to complete on the purchase of a property in Marston Moretaine but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the current proprietors in the sum of £3k taking the form of a deduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process yet Lloyds will not permit this. Should they have been informed?
Any lawyer that is on a Lloyds conveyancing panel is obliged to disclose to Lloyds of any amendments to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your property lawyer to notify the reduction to Lloyds then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Lloyds and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Marston Moretaine.
I am aiming to move property in May. Does my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you suggest a removal company in Marston Moretaine. Conveyancing firm was organised prior to coming across your page.
On the day of completion you will need to collect the house keys from the estate agent however this should only happen after the vendors solicitors inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be handed over. Subsequently you should inform the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal organisation but can help you find a residential property solicitor in Marston Moretaine or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Marston Moretaine.

A buyer’s solicitors should also order an enviro search. This should higlight whether there is any known flood risk. If so, further investigations should be made.
It has been 3 months since my purchase conveyancing in Marston Moretaine took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
