My purchaser’s mortgage company, Aldermore are being problematic. The St Asaph solicitor who is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Aldermore are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Aldermore have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Aldermore have referred the matter to their valuer.

The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

St Asaph Leasehold Conveyancing - Sample of Queries before Purchasing

    You should be aware if it is fewer than 80 years it will impact the marketability of the flat. It is worth checking with your mortgage company that they are content with remaining years on the lease. Leases with less than 80 years remaining means that you will most likely need a lease extension at some point and it is worth discovering what this would cost. For most St Asaphlease extensions you would be required to have been the owner of the residence for 24 months in order to be entitled to extend the lease. The best form of lease arrangement is a share of the freehold. In this situation the tenants enjoy control and although a managing agent is usually retained where the building is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent employed by the leaseholders. The answer will be important as a) areas could result in problems in the building as the communal areas may begin to deteriorate where maintenance are not paid for b) if the leaseholders have a dispute with the running of the building you will need to know about it

My parents are unable to locate their St Asaph property on the HMLR website. They have a vague memory fifty years ago when they purchased the house there were complications concerning the post code not being identified on some systems.

The vast majority of residences in St Asaph should be revealed. Have you endevoured to search with simply the postcode. Normally it should mention all the premises within that postcode. Assuming the property is registered it will show up with a title number. If they bought back in the 60’s it's conceivable it may be unrecorded. The property could still be revealed but with the title number identified as 'na'. In this scenario you will need to locate the original title papers which may be with your parent’s lender.
