Our Long Ashton solicitor has discovered a discrepancy when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation survey and what is revealed within the title deeds. My solicitor informs me that he is duty bound to ensure that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my lawyer’s stance legitimate?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions 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.
