Me and my partner are due to complete on the purchase of a property in Mexborough but as a result of wreckage from some water damage at the property I have managed to agree reparation from the vendor of £2k in the form of a deduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process yet Leeds Building Society will not permit this. Should they have been informed?

In addition, Leeds Building Society and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Mexborough.
