basically digging a hole when not needed, there is £750 of work that we want to get done, the solicitor mentioned that we would be seeking an allowance of £750 to get this done. Lender said no you cant do that via an allowance. I said to solicitor just leave it then we just want to complete. Solicitor then emailed saying "are we ok to proceed without the allowance then and the buyer completes the work on completion".
Our mortgage adviser at Halifax said of course you can, but why is he emailing that to head office and basically how he had worded it was like there was an issue out of nothing.
Now head office have instructed that they need to send round a surveyor to check out the work that needs to be done. (3 bricks are missing in the firewall and a void filling in attic). This is OUR private survey that revealed these things. Who knows when they will go round, what they will say, do we need to do the work before completion etc.
Game over, house exchange isn't going to happen before end June, solicitor totally fucked it
