I am purchasing a property in Llandyrnog. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Virgin Money 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 Virgin Money your lawyer must comply with the conveyancing instructions set out in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Virgin Money. The CML Handbook includes minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Virgin Money where a lease does not comply with these specifications. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not isolated to Llandyrnog.

I have paid off my mortgage with Lloyds. I assume I don't need a Llandyrnog property lawyer on the Lloyds panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.

If you have finished paying off your Lloyds mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Lloyds mortgage from the register. Lloyds, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

1. but are not moving to another property
2. where Lloyds has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
3. Lloyds has instructed the Land Registry to do so

Last May I purchased a leasehold property in Llandyrnog. Do I have any liability for service charges for periods before my ownership?

Where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous owner and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. Strange as it may seem, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to ensure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.

If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).

If a Llandyrnog lease has fewer than 80 years it will affect the marketability of the apartment. Check with your bank that they are happy with the length of the lease. A short lease means that you will probably have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and it is worth discovering what this would cost. Remember, in most cases you will need to own the premises for 24 months in order to be legally able to extend the lease. How many of the leaseholders are in arrears for their maintenance charge payments? The majority of Llandyrnog leasehold properties will have a service charge for maintenance of the building levied by the freeholder. Should you buy the apartment you will have to meet this contribution, usually quarterly throughout the year. This could vary from several hundred pounds to thousands of pounds for large purpose-built blocks. In all probability there will be a rentcharge to be met annual, this is usually not a exorbitant amount, say about £50-£100 but you need to enquire it because sometimes it could be prohibitively expensive.
