Not 5 bedroom but 4 bedroom

Gone Sale Agreed on a house that was advertised on MyHome.ie as 5 Bed.
Subsequent Surveyor's report says converted attic does not comply with regulations.
I remember when moving into current house, we got a discount of 15k as the solicitor raised it on our behalf i.e. 4 bed which turned out to be actually 3 bed.
Spoke to our solicitor and he says it's up to me to re-negotiate with estate agent.
Is this correct? Eventually will this not come to a head anyway as I assume vendors will need to provide compliance certs.
Am I right here?
Don't want to ring Estate Agent? His stance will be the obvious one?
 
The negotiation is yours and yours alone.

It is not the role of the solicitor.

Now is the time to address it. Send the surveyor's report to the estate agent and ask them for their comments before you proceed further.
