The Downham Market conveyancing firm handling our Downham Market conveyancing has identified a discrepancy between the assumptions in the valuation survey and what is in the legal papers for the property. My solicitor informs me that he needs to check that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my lawyer’s stance 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 told that property searches are the number one cause of delay in Downham Market house deals. Is that correct?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has noted the findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature amongst the common causes of delays during the legal transfer of property. Searches are not likely to feature in any holding up conveyancing in Downham Market.

Assuming the lease is registered - and most are in Downham Market - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
