We're settling next week and conveyancer has sent through settlement figures.
We're buying a unit and body corporate fees offer a discount if paid by a certain time. The vendor is in arrears and the conveyancer has not allowed an adjustment for the discounted amount. In this case, we're talking about $270 approx that I have worked out to be our proportion of the discount.
Have spoken to the conveyancer and I get the impression they are not interested in changing it.
It's not our fault that the vendor is behind in their payment - does anyone know if the available discount should be adjusted (pro rata) to the purchasers? Should I press a bit harder?
Thanks in advance...
