My wife and I buying a 3 bedroom semi in Barton Le Clay. Our aim is to carry out a loft conversion at the property.Will the conveyancing process include investigations to ascertain if these works are permitted?
Your solicitor will check the deeds as conveyancing in Barton Le Clay can sometimes identify restrictions in the title documents which prevent categories of alterations or need the consent of another owner. Some extensions require local authority planning consent and approval under the building regulations. Many locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or impact extensions. It would be prudent to check these issues with a surveyor prior to committing yourself to a purchase.
I am purchasing a property in Barton Le Clay. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender UBS be concerned?
As you are obtaining a mortgage with UBS your lawyer must follow the formal requirements set out in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for UBS. The CML Handbook contains minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancing practitioners are required to report to UBS where a lease does not meet these requirements. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not isolated to Barton Le Clay.
I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in October 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Virgin Money are being pedantic. The Barton Le Clay solicitor who is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Virgin Money are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Virgin Money have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Virgin Money have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Virgin Money 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.
