I am buying a property in Cheddleton. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Yorkshire BS 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 your lender is Yorkshire BS your lawyer must check the formal requirements set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Yorkshire BS. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook sets out minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Yorkshire BS where a lease fails to meet these requirements. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not isolated to Cheddleton.

I opted to have a survey completed on a property in Cheddleton prior to instructing conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. The surveyor advised that some mortgage companies will refuse to grant a loan on this type of house.
