Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Oswestry

I am about to complete on the purchase of a property in Oswestry but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate reparation from the seller in the sum of £3k by way of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process but Santander will not agree to this. Should they have been involved?

Any conveyancing practitioner being on the Santander approved list is required to disclose to Santander of any amendments to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your solicitor to disclose the price change to Santander then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Santander and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Oswestry.

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to use their panel conveyancer as I would much rather appoint a Oswestry based conveyancing firm?

You should check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel lawyers if you want the "fee-free" deal. Contact the mortgage company and determine if they allow a cash alternative.
