I am buying a property in Bradmore. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Bank of Ireland be concerned?
Given that your lender is Bank of Ireland your lawyer must follow the formal requirements set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Bank of Ireland. The CML Handbook includes minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancing practitioners are required to report to Bank of Ireland where a lease fails to comply with these conditions. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not limited to Bradmore.
I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Bradmore off the council. I have a mortgage agreed with Aldermore. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Aldermore, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Aldermore conveyancing panel.
How does conveyancing in Bradmore differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Bradmore contact us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because house builders in Bradmore tend to buy the site, 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 property lawyers 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 Bradmore or who has acted in the same development.
