I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in April 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, HSBC are being problematic. The Hebden Bridge solicitor who is on the HSBC conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but HSBC are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do HSBC have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that HSBC have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why HSBC 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.

Property lawyer instructed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Skipton and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Skipton conveyancing panel. Are Skipton entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?

My wife and I have an offer in principle from Virgin Money who have advised that they will lend up to £117k. When do we need to appoint a practitioner for conveyancing? Hebden Bridge is where we are .
You can appoint a conveyancing practitioner now so that the conveyancer can open the ledger so they can conduct their ID checks etc. If and when you wish them to start work they will seek a payment on account usually about £225. That would normally be after you have the mortgage offer and valuation results, however if you want to expedite matters you can start sooner even though you may be risking some expense.
