I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in January 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Leeds Building Society are being pedantic. The Caersws solicitor who is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Leeds Building Society are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Leeds Building Society have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Leeds Building Society have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Leeds Building Society may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Our offer on a house in Caersws has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The vendors have offered on on an apartment, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other properties in the pipeline. I have selected a local conveyancing solicitor in Caersws. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Nottingham going?
It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Caersws conveyancing search fees, etc).

As to the next stages this very much dictated by the specifics of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. In a rising market many home buyers will apply for the mortgage with Nottingham and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their solicitor to proceed with searches.
