I am purchasing a property in Doncaster. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Kent Reliance 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 Kent Reliance your lawyer must comply with the formal instructions outlined in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Kent Reliance. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook contains minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to Kent Reliance where a lease fails to meet these conditions. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not isolated to Doncaster.

What does commercial conveyancing in Doncaster cover?

Commercial conveyancing in Doncaster covers a broad array of services, offered by regulated solicitors, relating to business property.

We're new on the property ladder - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent told us that the vendor will only move forward if we appoint their chosen solicitors as they need a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a local solicitor used to conveyancing in Doncaster

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this ultimatum. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Contact the sellers directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to use your preferred Doncaster conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing thresholds demanded by senior management.
