My purchaser’s mortgage company, Virgin Money are being difficult. The Pembroke Dock solicitor who is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Virgin Money are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Virgin Money have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Virgin Money have referred the matter to their valuer.

As the bare minimum you need a Home Buyer's Report. Given the residence was constructed more than a decade ago the property will not come with a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may be sufficient. The report should highlight any obvious problems and suggest further investigation where appropriate. If there are any indications of problems obtain a comprehensive structural survey.
