I am purchasing a property in Papworth Everard. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Skipton have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook contains minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancing practitioners are required to report to Skipton where a lease does not comply with these requirements.

I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Papworth Everard off the council. I have a mortgage agreed with Nationwide. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons.

The sellers have offered on a flat, however it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other properties booked. I have chosen a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Papworth Everard. What do I do now? When do I get the mortgage application with Virgin Money started?

It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Papworth Everard conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is ensure that your conveyancer is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. Regarding the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your case, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market many buyers would apply for a home loan with Virgin Money and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their solicitor to proceed with the conveyancing in Papworth Everard.

I am purchasing a new build house in Papworth Everard with a loan from Barclays . The sellers refused to move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not disclose to my lawyer about this deal as it will impact my loan with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
