My wife and I are about to exchange on the purchase of a house in Rothbury but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the owner of £3k in the form of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of a side agreement but RBS will not agree to this. Should they have been informed?
Any property lawyer that is on a RBS conveyancing panel is obliged to inform RBS of any variations to the sale price. If you were to refuse your conveyancing practitioner to disclose the reduction to RBS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, RBS and you would have to appoint a new conveyancer for your conveyancing in Rothbury.
My partner and I are downsizing from our house in Rothbury and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Rothbury conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Rothbury. We have lived in Rothbury for three years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)

How does conveyancing in Rothbury differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Rothbury contact us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because builders in Rothbury tend to buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Rothbury or who has acted in the same development.
