Our solicitor has identified a a problem with the lease for the apartment we are purchasing in Hertfordshire. The other side have suggested title insurance as a workaround. We are happy with insurance and will cover the costs. Our lawyer has advised that he must be satisfied that the mortgage company is content with this solution. Are we the client or is the lender?
Even though you have a mortgage offer from the bank does not mean to say that the property will meet their conditions for the purposes of a mortgage. Your lawyer has to ensure that the lease has to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements. You and the lender are the client.
