I am buying a property in Mossley Hill. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. TSB have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
Given that your lender is TSB your lawyer must follow the formal requirements set out in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for TSB. The CML Handbook sets out minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to TSB where a lease fails to meet these provisions. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not restricted to Mossley Hill.

How does conveyancing in Mossley Hill differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Mossley Hill approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because new home sellers in Mossley Hill 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 used to new build conveyancing in Mossley Hill or who has acted in the same development.
