We have agreed to purchase a house in Richmond. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Leeds Building Society have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
As your lender is Leeds Building Society your lawyer must follow the conveyancing instructions outlined in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Leeds Building Society. The CML Handbook includes minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Leeds Building Society where a lease fails to satisfy these specifications. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not isolated to Richmond.

I moved into my house on 16 April and my personal details is yet to be registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Richmond said it would be registered in less than a month. Are properties in Richmond uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Richmond registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Historically registration occurs once the buyer has moved in to the premises therefore an expedited registration is not usually an essential issue yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
