ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

Practical guidance for property practitioners.

Acting on the purchase of a leasehold flat requires the conveyancer not only to investigate title but also to ensure that the property satisfies the mortgage lender’s requirements. While many leasehold defects are well recognised, they can still lead to enquiries, delay and, in some cases, a refusal to lend. This practical webinar considers how recurring issues can be approached in light of the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook and lender-specific requirements.
