I am purchasing a property in Aberdare. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Clydesdale be concerned?
Given that your lender is Clydesdale your lawyer must check the conveyancing instructions set out in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Clydesdale. The CML Handbook sets out minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to Clydesdale where a lease does not meet these specifications. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not limited to Aberdare.
I recently had an offer accepted on an apartment in Aberdare. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an upfront payment of £225. A few days later, the conveyancer contacted me to say that they were not on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Co-operative panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
