The Tisbury conveyancing firm handling our Tisbury conveyancing has spotted a discrepancy between the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation report and what is in the conveyancing documents. My solicitor has advised that he is duty bound to ensure that the bank is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s approach right?
Your solicitor must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions 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.
Finally the sale completed on my house in Tisbury last July yet the purchaser is e-mailing me complaining that their conveyancer needs to hear from mysolicitor. What should have happened now that I have sold?
Following your sale your lawyer should deliver the transfer documentation and all additional paperwork to the buyer’s solicitors. Where relevant, your solicitor should also confirm that the home loan has been paid off to the buyers conveyancers. There are no post completion tasks unique to conveyancing in Tisbury.
The deeds to my house are lost. The solicitors who conducted the conveyancing in Tisbury 10 years ago no longer exist. What are my next steps?
As long as the title is registered the information relating to your proprietorship will be documented by the Land Registry under a Title Number. It is possible to conduct a search at the Land Registry, locate your property and get up to date copies of the Registered Entries for a small fee. If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will in most cases hold a file duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be obtained for twenty pounds.
