I am soon to exchange buying a property in Fordingbridge but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree compensation from the current proprietors in the sum of six thousand pounds in the form of a reduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of amending the contract but Virgin Money are not allowing this. Should they have been notified?
Any property lawyer that is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel is required to advise Virgin Money of any amendments to the sale price. If you prohibit your property lawyer to disclose the price change to Virgin Money then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Virgin Money and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Fordingbridge.
