My partner and I have organised the release of further monies on our home loan from Lloyds as we intend to conduct improvements to our house in Yardley. Do we need to select a bricks and mortar Yardley solicitor on the Lloyds conveyancing panel to handle the legals?
Lloyds don't usually instruct firms on their conveyancing panel to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Lloyds conveyancing panel.
I can not work out if my lender obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my Yardley building society branch on a couple of occasions and was told it wasn't an issue and they will lend. My Yardley conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they would not lend based on their published requirements. Who do I believe?
The property lawyer has to comply with the CML Handbook Part 2 requirements for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in April 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Aldermore are being pedantic. The Yardley solicitor who is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Aldermore are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Aldermore have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Aldermore have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Aldermore 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.
