We have agreed to purchase a house in Beaumaris. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Yorkshire BS have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Yorkshire BS your lawyer must check the formal instructions outlined in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Yorkshire BS. The CML Handbook sets out minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Yorkshire BS where a lease does not satisfy these requirements. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Beaumaris.

Local searches are not likely to feature in any slowing down conveyancing in Beaumaris.
I am intending to let out my leasehold apartment in Beaumaris. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Do I need to ask my freeholder for permission?
Some leases for properties in Beaumaris do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord cannot unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting permission.
