Our Tottenham conveyancer has identified a discrepancy between the surveyor’s assumptions in the home valuation survey and what is in the conveyancing documents. My lawyer has advised that he is obliged to ensure that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my solicitor’s approach right?
Your conveyancing practitioner 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.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one close by in Tottenham I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Tottenham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you require a home loan that many years will be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
