The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Principality where a lease fails to meet these provisions. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not limited to Leamouth.

Me and my partner have recently had an offer agreed on a apartment and had meeting on Wednesday with HSBC for the mortgage. They warned us that when it comes to selecting a property lawyer that if they are not on their approved panel of solicitors then we will have to pay out an additional charge of £200. This is is due to the fact that they would then have to select a solicitor to act for them in addition to the one we appoint for ourselves and we will be on the hook for their fees. I have asked HSBC to supply me with a list so I can seek quotes only from their approved conveyancers but was told they dont have such a list to hand over. Is there a list online?

You can enquire of HSBC what their criteria for panel membership is for a solicitor.Thereafter ask the property lawyer of your choice whether they fit that criteria and have they acted on loans for HSBC before. If the answer to those is yes, then just clarify this with HSBC. Alternatively please make use of our search facility and we may be able to locate a lawyer in Leamouth on the approved list for HSBC.
