We are soon to complete on the purchase of a house in Port Talbot but as a consequence of damage from a small fire at the property I have was able negotiate compensation from the vendor in the sum of £3k in the form of a reduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of amending the contract but TSB will not agree to this. Should they have been notified?
Any property lawyer being on the TSB approved list is duty bound to inform TSB of any changes to the sale price. If you prohibit your solicitor to notify the reduction to TSB then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, TSB and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Port Talbot.
