Our West Hendon solicitor has identified a difference when comparing the information in the home valuation report and what is revealed within the title deeds. My solicitor has advised that he is obliged to ensure that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my solicitor’s approach right?
Your lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements 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.
Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in West Hendon is more expensive?
In summary, leasehold conveyancing in West Hendon and North London usually necessitates more hours of investigation compared to freehold conveyancing. This includes lease investigation, communicating with the landlord about the service of appropriate notices, securing current service charge and management information, obtaining the freeholder’s consents and reviewing management accounts. The obligations on both the landlord and the tenant in the lease need to be studied by the buyer’s conveyancing team and read from beginning to end – regardless of the fact the lease has passed through many different property solicitors hands since it was first entered into.
