I am soon to complete buying a property in Madeley but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree recompense from the current proprietors in the sum of £3k taking the form of a adjustment in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of amending the contract yet RBS are not allowing this. Should they have been informed?
Your solicitor that is on the RBS approved list is required to disclose to RBS of any changes to the purchase price. If you prohibit your property lawyer to report the reduction to RBS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, RBS and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Madeley.

I am planning to move home in June. Does my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Madeley. Conveyancing lawyer was found before I stumbled across your website.
On the day of completion you will need to pick up the keys from the property agent but this should only occur once the previous owners solicitors confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be passed over. You will need to tell the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal company but can assist you in locating a conveyancing in Madeley or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Madeley.
Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with HSBC. Madeley conveyancing lawyers have been selected. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from HSBC?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have HSBC completed the survey? Have you informed HSBC as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the HSBC conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
I can not fathom if my bank requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Madeley building society branch on a couple of occasions and was told it wasn't a problem and they will lend. My Madeley conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they will not lend in accordance with their published requirements. I simply don't know who is right.
The solicitor must comply with the CML Handbook Part 2 requirements for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Madeley with a loan from Leeds Building Society. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The property agent advised me not to tell my conveyancer about this side-deal as it would put at risk my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
