Me and my partner are soon to exchange buying a property in Denbigh but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree recompense from the vendor of six thousand pounds taking the form of a deduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process but Leeds Building Society are not allowing this. Should they have been notified?
The lawyer being on a Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel is required to inform Leeds Building Society of any variations to the sale price. If you were to refuse your conveyancing practitioner to report the reduction to Leeds Building Society then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Leeds Building Society and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Denbigh.

Have just purchased a probate house at auction in Denbigh. Conveyancing is required. What is next?

This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as a first time buyer of a garden flat in Denbigh. Do I collect the keys to the house on the completion date from my solicitor? If this is the case, I will instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Denbigh?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will transfer the purchase money to the vendor’s solicitors, and once they have received this, you will be invited to collect the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this happens early afternoon.
