We are about to exchange buying a property in Neath Port Talbot but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree compensation from the current proprietors in the sum of £2k taking the form of a adjustment in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of amending the contract however Nationwide will not agree to this. Should they have been involved?
Any property lawyer that is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel is obliged to advise Nationwide of any changes to the purchase price. If you prohibit your conveyancing practitioner to notify the reduction to Nationwide then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Nationwide and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Neath Port Talbot.

At last I have had an offer on a flat in Neath Port Talbot accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on somewhere, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have instructed a local conveyancing solicitor in Neath Port Talbot. What should be my next step? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Nottingham?

In a hot market the majority of buyers would apply for a home loan with Nottingham and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their conveyancer to press on with the conveyancing in Neath Port Talbot.
