Can you help - my lawyer says that defective lease insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Radstock conveyancing?

I am purchasing a property in Radstock. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Co-operative be concerned?

As your lender is Co-operative your lawyer must check the formal instructions contained in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Co-operative. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook sets out minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to Co-operative where a lease does not satisfy these conditions. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Radstock.

It is unclear whether my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date.

My Radstock conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they will not lend in accordance with their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I have no idea who is right.

The solicitor has to follow the CML Handbook section two specifications for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender 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 remaining.

I need some quick conveyancing in Radstock as I have pressure to exchange contracts inside 4 weeks. Fortunately I do not need a mortgage. Is it possible to escape the need for conveyancing searches to save money and time?

We're FTB’s - had an offer accepted, yet the agent has warned us that the vendor will only move forward if we appoint their chosen conveyancers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer who is accustomed to conveyancing in Radstock
