We have agreed to purchase a house in Kemp Town. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Coventry BS be concerned?
As your lender is Coventry BS your lawyer must check the formal requirements outlined in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Coventry BS. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook contains minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to Coventry BS where a lease fails to meet these provisions. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not limited to Kemp Town.
I can not work out if my lender obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my Kemp Town building society branch on numerous occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they would lend. My Kemp Town conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they refuse to lend based on their published requirements. Who do I believe?
Provided that the property lawyer is on the bank panel, they must adhere to the CML Handbook conditions for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
It has been five months following my purchase conveyancing in Kemp Town took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
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 property 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.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in last month in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Kemp Town is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?

Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

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.
