Our Gallows Corner solicitor has discovered an inconsistency when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation survey and what is in the legal papers for the property. My lawyer informs me that he is duty bound to ensure that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my solicitor’s approach legitimate?
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.
I am the sole recipient of my late mum's estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Gallows Corner. The Gallows Corner property was put into my name in December. I plan to dispose of the house. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship will be considered the same way as if I'd bought the house in December. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The CML handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be caught by that. Most banks would take a practical view as this provision chiefly exists to pick up on subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of property.

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the TSB conveyancing panel they would need to be overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. Some banks do permit licenced conveyancers on their panel and in that case the firms would be overseen by the CLC.

I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Gallows Corner solicitor is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel.

I'm buying my first flat in Gallows Corner benefiting from help to buy. The developers would not reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
