I have instructed a Pontllanfraith conveyancing practitioner having checked that they are on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
HSBC will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually HSBC will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Pontllanfraith surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Pontllanfraith with the aid of help to buy. The developers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The property agent advised me not inform my solicitor about this deal as it could jeopardize my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.
