Me and my partner are due to exchange on the purchase of a house in Gerrards Cross and Chalfont but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree recompense from the owner in the sum of three thousand pounds in the form of a adjustment in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of a side agreement however UBS are not allowing this. Why were they approached?
Any conveyancing practitioner that is on the UBS approved list is duty bound to advise UBS of any amendments to the sale price. If you prohibit your solicitor to disclose the reduction to UBS then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, UBS and you would have to appoint a new conveyancing practitioner for your conveyancing in Gerrards Cross and Chalfont.

We are buying a 2 bedroom flat in Gerrards Cross and Chalfont with a homeloan from The Mortgage Works.We use our Gerrards Cross and Chalfont conveyancing solicitor but The Mortgage Works advised that she’s not listed on their approved list of firms. It seems we have little choice but to instruct a The Mortgage Works panel firm or retain our local solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to act for them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that The Mortgage Works use our lawyer?
Unfortunately,no. The loan offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, a common one being that solicitors must be on the The Mortgage Works approved list. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for The Mortgage Works
