The Winkleigh conveyancing firm handling our Winkleigh conveyancing has discovered a discrepancy between the assumptions in the home valuation report and what is in the conveyancing documents. My solicitor has advised that he is obliged to ensure that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my lawyer’s course or action appropriate?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications 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 you.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Winkleigh I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Winkleigh for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.

A lawyer would need to be very bad to suggest changing them. Has your loan offer been issued? If so you must make them aware of the new contact details and ensure the offer are re-issued.
