My solicitor has advised that he must ensure that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my conveyancer’s approach appropriate?

The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal.
