I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in August 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Co-operative are being problematic. The Swanscombe solicitor who is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Co-operative are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Co-operative have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Co-operative have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Co-operative may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
My sealed bid on a detached house in Swanscombe has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The sellers have placed an offer on somewhere, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Swanscombe. What should be my next step? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Nationwide?
It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Swanscombe conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should check that your property lawyer is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent phase this very much dictated by the circumstances of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. In a hot market some buyers will apply for a home loan with Nationwide and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their solicitor to proceed with searches.

I'm buying a new build house in Swanscombe with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The sale representative told me not to tell my lawyer about the deal as it could adversely affect my loan with the lender. 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.
I have been on the look out for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Swanscombe I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, however it's only got 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Swanscombe suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
