We have agreed to purchase a house in Nag's Head. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Clydesdale be concerned?
As your lender is Clydesdale your lawyer must check the formal instructions contained in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Clydesdale. The CML Handbook stipulates minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Clydesdale where a lease does not meet these conditions. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not restricted to Nag's Head.

How does conveyancing in Nag's Head differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Nag's Head come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because house builders in Nag's Head tend to buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Nag's Head or who has acted in the same development.
Midway through the sale of a leasehold flat in Nag's Head. Conveyancing is fine but we are being charged a fortune from the landlord. So far we have paid £237 for a leasehold management information and then another £134.40 for responses to queries raised by the purchaser's solicitor.
You will not have any say over the extent of the fee for this information but the typical fee for the information for Nag's Head leasehold premises is £395. When it comes to Nag's Head conveyancing sales it is customary for the owner to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions most will be content to do so - albeit often at high prices out of proportion to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no legislation that requires set charges for administrative tasks. There is no statutory time frame by which they are duty bound to supply answers.
