My Tokyngton conveyancer has discovered a difference when comparing the assumptions in the home valuation survey and what is in the legal papers for the property. My solicitor says that he is duty bound to ensure that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s stance right?
Your conveyancing practitioner must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.

Will our conveyancer be asking questions concerning flooding as part of the conveyancing in Tokyngton.
Flooding is a growing risk for solicitors dealing with homes in Tokyngton. Plenty of people will purchase a property in Tokyngton, completely aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical destruction, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the buyer.
Conveyancers are not qualified to offer advice on flood risk, however there are a various checks that may be undertaken by the buyer or by their lawyers which should give them a better appreciation of the risks in Tokyngton. The conventional set of information supplied to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a standard question of the owner to determine whether the property has suffered from flooding. If the premises has been flooded in past and is not revealed by the owner, then a buyer may issue a claim for damages as a result of such an incorrect answer. The buyer’s lawyers may also conduct an environmental search. This will reveal whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations should be made.
