My solicitor has uncovered a a problem with the lease for the flat we are purchasing in Fulwell. The seller’s lawyers have suggested title insurance as a solution. We are content with insurance and will cover the costs. Our conveyancer has advised that he must ensure that the mortgage company is happy with this solution. Who is the client here, us or the lender?
Regardless of the fact that you have a mortgage offer from the lender does not mean to say that the property will meet their provisions for the purposes of a mortgage. Your lawyer has to ensure that the lease has to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions. You and the mortgage company are the client. The appropriate lender specifications must be adhered to.
