I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in November 2010, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Clydesdale are being problematic. The Leamington Spa solicitor who is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Clydesdale are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Clydesdale have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Clydesdale have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Clydesdale may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Leamington Spa is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Leamington Spa are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Leamington Spa you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Leamington Spa may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.

My husband and I are FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent has warned us that the seller will only issue a contract if we use the agent's recommended lawyers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Leamington Spa

We suspect that the seller is not behind this request. If they desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine buyer is counter productive. Try to communicate with the vendors directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to use your own,trusted Leamington Spa conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothose that will give their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing figures pre-set by corporate headquarters.
