I am purchasing a property in Chellaston. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Santander be concerned?
Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Santander your lawyer must comply with the formal requirements set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Santander.

At last I have had an offer on an apartment in Chellaston agreed to, the owners do nevertheless have a tied purchase. The owners have offered on a flat, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have chosen a high street conveyancing solicitor in Chellaston. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Skipton going?

First, you must check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Skipton conveyancing panel. Concerning the next phase this very much depends on the circumstances of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market.

How does conveyancing in Chellaston differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Chellaston approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because builders in Chellaston usually purchase 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 used to new build conveyancing in Chellaston or who has acted in the same development.
