Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Santander. Henllan conveyancing practitioners were selected. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Santander?

We have agreed to purchase a house in Henllan. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Yorkshire BS 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 your lender is Yorkshire BS your lawyer must check the formal instructions contained in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Yorkshire BS. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook includes minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Yorkshire BS where a lease fails to meet these provisions. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not limited to Henllan.

There is not much else in Henllan suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted.

An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
