We have agreed to purchase a house in Bowes Park. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Barclays have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Barclays your lawyer must comply with the conveyancing instructions outlined in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Barclays. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook sets out minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Barclays where a lease does not satisfy these provisions. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Bowes Park.

I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Bowes Park conveyancing practitioner is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel.
