My wife and I are about to exchange buying a property in Milford Haven but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate recompense from the vendor in the sum of £3k taking the form of a adjustment in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of a side agreement but UBS will not agree to this. Should they have been notified?
Any lawyer being on the UBS approved list is duty bound to advise UBS of any changes to the purchase price. If you prohibit your conveyancing practitioner to report the reduction to UBS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, UBS and you would have to appoint a new conveyancer for your conveyancing in Milford Haven.
