I am assisting my sister sell her flat in Camborne. Will the solicitor arrange an energy performance certificate or should I organise this?

After the abolition of Home Packs, EPC’s was maintained a mandatory component of selling a house. An energy assessment needs to be commissioned before the property is placed on the market. This is not as aspect of the sale process that solicitors normally organise. If you are using a Camborne conveyancing lawyer they might be willing to arrange energy assessments given their contacts with long established Camborne providers

We have agreed to purchase a house in Camborne. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender be concerned?

Given that your lender is your lawyer must check the formal requirements set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for . The CML Handbook stipulates minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and are required to report to where a lease does not comply with these conditions. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not isolated to Camborne.

You will need to appoint Camborne solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and through the process.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Camborne with a loan from . The builders refused to budge the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The property agent suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about the extras as it would impact my loan with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

It is not unheard of in leasehold conveyancing in Camborne to find Conveyancing in Camborne in a minority of cases reveals that the lease requires the tenant's to insure their individual flats rather than the landlord insuring the entire block - which is definitely better.
