My Walthamstow Village lawyer has discovered a difference when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the home valuation survey and what is in the title deeds. My solicitor informs me that he needs to check that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my conveyancer’s approach appropriate?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements 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 both parties.

Subsequently you can tell the removal men that you are ready to move in. We do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can assist you in finding a conveyancing in Walthamstow Village or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Walthamstow Village.

After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Walthamstow Village. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an upfront payment of £200. A couple of days later, the lawyer contacted me to say that they were not on the Santander conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Santander panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
