Council Reduced Clawback, AHP said they shouldn't have - what now?

Hi,

Ive posted before about our clawback.

After our bank did a valuation on the house we wish to purchase. The council reduced the clawback. But now the AHP said they shouldn't have done this, I have it in writing that the clawback has been reduced, have we any come back.

As the house was over priced in the first place and the clawback was 20% to start with and since has been reduced to 15%.

We are not happy to go ahead with this if they do increase it.

Im just wondering can they, or because I have it in writing that the clawback is now 15% do AHP have to stick with it

I would say the safest thing to do is to consult with your solictor - i had my claw back reduced - once i got the letter from fingal thats was all i needed

Did you try to contact AHP and ask them why. It may be there is no problem with the reduction but they may just have a problem with the council making the decision to award it without going through AHP first.

I spoke to them, see we're paying 305 for the house and AHP where paying 75k towards it to make 380, but the banks valuation is only 360 so the clawback was reduce, which would mean that AHP would only be giving 55k instead of 75k, but becasue AHP had agreeded a price of 380, whos going to fit the bill of 20k because we're not prepare to pay it, lack of communication between the Council and AHP if you ask me, but my question is because we have it in writing do they have to go with that clawback, our solictor said to just wait and see what AHP come back with.
