We are about to complete buying a property in Finchley but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree recompense from the seller of £2k in the form of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process however Barclays will not agree to this. Should they have been informed?
Any lawyer that is on the Barclays conveyancing panel is obliged to inform Barclays of any variations to the sale price. If you were to refuse your lawyer to report the price change to Barclays then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Barclays and you would have to appoint a new conveyancing practitioner for your conveyancing in Finchley.

How does conveyancing in Finchley differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Finchley approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because developers in Finchley tend to acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Finchley or who has acted in the same development.
