We are soon to complete buying a property in Talsarnau but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the seller of three thousand pounds taking the form of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of a side agreement however Bank of Ireland are not allowing this. Why were they involved?
The lawyer that is on a Bank of Ireland approved list is duty bound to advise Bank of Ireland of any variations to the sale price. If you were to refuse your lawyer to report the price change to Bank of Ireland then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Bank of Ireland and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Talsarnau.

Some major lenders now make use of CQS as the starting point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. CQS accreditation however gives no guarantee to lender panel acceptance.

I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in July 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Virgin Money are being pedantic. The Talsarnau solicitor who is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Virgin Money are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Virgin Money have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Virgin Money have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Virgin Money may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
We are selling our property in Talsarnau and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. Any local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers used a national conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Talsarnau. We have lived in Talsarnau for six years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to obtain confirmation need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. What do they say? 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 health insurance to cover that same ailment)
