Me and my partner are about to complete on the purchase of a property in Saltney but as a result of wreckage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate recompense from the current proprietors in the sum of £2k in the form of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of a side agreement but Yorkshire BS are not allowing this. Should they have been informed?
The property lawyer that is on a Yorkshire BS approved list is obliged to inform Yorkshire BS of any amendments to the sale price. If you were to refuse your property lawyer to report the reduction to Yorkshire BS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Yorkshire BS and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Saltney.
