Our Woodside Park solicitor has discovered an inconsistency when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation survey and what is revealed within the legal papers for the property. My lawyer has advised that he is duty bound to check that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my solicitor’s approach correct?
Your conveyancer 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 you.

My partner and I have organised a further advance on our mortgage from Nottingham as we wish to carry out renovations to our property in Woodside Park. Do we need to appoint a high street Woodside Park solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel to deal with the legals?
Nottingham would not normally require a member of their conveyancing panel to deal with the formalities. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Nottingham list.
I recently had an offer accepted on an apartment in Woodside Park. My mortgage broker suggested a property lawyer. I paid an upfront payment of £225. A couple of days later, the lawyer contacted me to say that they were not on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Nottingham panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
