Given that your lender is Aldermore your lawyer must comply with the formal instructions outlined in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Aldermore. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook sets out minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Aldermore where a lease does not comply with these requirements. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not isolated to Maxton.

The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.
