My conveyancer has identified a a problem with the lease for the apartment we are buying in Machynlleth. The other side have put forward title insurance as a workaround. We are happy with insurance and will pay for it. Our solicitor has advised that he must ensure that the mortgage company is willing to move forward with this solution. Are we the client or is the bank?

Even though you have a mortgage offer from the bank does not mean to say that the property will meet their specifications for the purposes of a mortgage.

I happen to be the only recipient of my late grandmother’s will and I have everything in my name now, including the house in Machynlleth. The Machynlleth property was put into my name in September. I plan to dispose of the property. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', which means that my property ownership will be treated the same way as if I'd bought the house in September. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The CML handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be affected by that. Some mortgage companies would take a practical view as this obligation primarily exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of property.

I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Skipton are being a right pain. The Machynlleth solicitor who is on the Skipton conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Skipton are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Skipton have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Skipton have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Skipton 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.
