We have agreed to purchase a house in St Neots. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Clydesdale 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 Clydesdale your lawyer must comply with the formal requirements outlined in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Clydesdale. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Clydesdale where a lease fails to satisfy these requirements. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to St Neots.
