We have agreed to purchase a house in Wolverley. An unusual 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 check the formal requirements set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Leeds Building Society. The CML Handbook includes minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Leeds Building Society where a lease does not satisfy these specifications. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Wolverley.

I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Coventry BS are being a right pain. The Wolverley solicitor who is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Coventry BS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Coventry BS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Coventry BS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Coventry BS 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.

I am purchasing a new build house in Wolverley with a loan from Halifax. The sellers would not move on the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The house builders rep advised me not to tell my solicitor about the extras as it could affect my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

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've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Wolverley is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Wolverley are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Wolverley you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Wolverley may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.

We're novice buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent told us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct the agent's chosen solicitors as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Wolverley

It is improbable the owners are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to instruct your own,trusted Wolverley conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothe ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing thresholds pre-set by corporate headquarters.

I am a negotiator for a busy estate agent office in Wolverley where we have experienced a number of flat sales put at risk due to leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have been given conflicting advice from local Wolverley conveyancing solicitors. Can you shed some light as to whether the seller of a flat can instigate the lease extension process for the purchaser on completion of the sale?

Provided that the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to commence the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer need not have to sit tight for 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.

Alternatively, it may be possible to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.

    The prefered form of lease arrangement is a share of the freehold. In this situation the lessees have control and although a managing agent is usually retained if the building is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent retained by the leaseholders. How much is the service charge and ground rent on the flat? Does the lease have in excess of 82 years left?
