My Morley lawyer has identified a difference between the assumptions in the home valuation survey and what is in the legal papers for the property. My lawyer says that he needs to check that the bank is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s approach appropriate?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications 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 both parties.

Builders often have lists of lawyers who expedite matters and who know the builder's paperwork and conveyancing practitioner. As many developers offer an inducement to choose their approved solicitor for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a developer won't recommend a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they need an exchange within a tight time frame. The argument for not agreeing to use the recommended solicitor is that they may be hesitant to 'push' your interests for fear of upsetting the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the case you should remain with your high street Morley conveyancing practitioner.
