Given that your lender is Barclays your lawyer must check the formal instructions set out in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Barclays. The CML Handbook stipulates minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Barclays where a lease fails to comply with these conditions. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Dinnington.

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

If you have had any disputes with your landlord or managing agents it is essential that these are resolved before the property is marketed. The buyers and their solicitors will be nervous about purchasing a flat where there is a current dispute. You may have to bite the bullet and discharge any arrears of service charge or settle the dispute prior to completion of the sale. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You are still duty bound to disclose details of the dispute to the purchasers, but it is better to reveal the dispute as over rather than ongoing. The majority of freeholders or Management Companies in Dinnington charge for providing management packs for a leasehold premises. You or your lawyers should find out the fee that they propose to charge. The management pack sought as soon as you have a buyer, thus accelerating the process.

If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your property on the market for sale.
