I am purchasing a property in Cotgrave. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender TSB be concerned?

As you are obtaining a mortgage with TSB your lawyer must follow the conveyancing instructions set out in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for TSB. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook sets out minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to TSB where a lease fails to satisfy these requirements. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not limited to Cotgrave.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Cotgrave is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can impart?

Flying freeholds in Cotgrave are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Cotgrave you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Cotgrave may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
