We have agreed to purchase a house in Bounds Green. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. RBS 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 RBS your lawyer must check the formal requirements set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for RBS. The CML Handbook includes minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to RBS where a lease fails to comply with these specifications. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not restricted to Bounds Green.

Last April I purchased a leasehold property in Bounds Green. Do I have any liability for service charges for periods before completion of my purchase?

In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous lessee and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. However, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to ensure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.

If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).
