My wife and I are due to complete buying a property in Henllys but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate compensation from the current proprietors in the sum of three thousand pounds in the form of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of amending the contract but Clydesdale are not allowing this. Should they have been approached?
Your property lawyer being on a Clydesdale conveyancing panel is required to disclose to Clydesdale of any changes to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your property lawyer to notify the price change 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 Henllys.
The Henllys conveyancing solicitors that just started acting on my purchase in Henllys have suddenly shut down. They were on acting for me because I had to have a firm on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel and my family Henllys lawyer was not. I paid them 275 plus VAT in advance. What do I do now?
If you have an estate agent involved then inform them immediately so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors should be in a position to assist.
