I am soon to exchange on the purchase of a property in Boncath but as a result of damage from a small fire at the property I have managed to agree reparation from the current proprietors in the sum of £2k in the form of a deduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of amending the contract however Clydesdale will not permit this. Why were they informed?
Any solicitor that is on the Clydesdale approved list is obliged to inform Clydesdale of any amendments to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your conveyancer to report the reduction to Clydesdale then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Clydesdale and you would have to appoint a new conveyancer for your conveyancing in Boncath.

We are intent on selling our house in Boncath and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. A high street Boncath lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed an online conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Boncath. Having lived in Boncath for 5 years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. What do they say? You need to enquire of 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 sickness)
I have recentlybecome aware that Arc property Solicitors have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Boncath for a purchase of a leasehold flat 10 months ago. How can I check that my home is in my name in the name of the former proprietor?
The easiest method to see if the property is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Boncath conveyancing specialists.
