I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in November 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Kent Reliance are being problematic. The Penley solicitor who is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Kent Reliance are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Kent Reliance have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

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

Will our conveyancer be raising enquiries regarding flooding during the conveyancing in Penley.

Flooding is a growing risk for solicitors specialising in conveyancing in Penley. Plenty of people will buy a property in Penley, completely aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical damage, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, adequate building insurance, or sell the premises.

The conventional set of information sent to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) incorporates a usual inquiry of the vendor to find out if the premises has ever been flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred which is not disclosed by the owner, then a buyer could bring a compensation claim as a result of such an inaccurate response. A buyer’s solicitors will also commission an environmental report. This will disclose if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations should be made.

The owners have submitted an offer on a flat, however it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other flats booked. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Penley. What should be my next step?
