Mortgages on buildings made from non-aluminate concrete?!?

Hi
Just made an offer on a flat in a grade 2 listed building.
Offer rejected and EA advised on checking with the bank that they would lend on a property made from 'non-aluminate concrete' or something like that!
Supposedly HSBC and Santander are the only lenders lending for this type of property right now but this EA has been in contact with me for weeks and only just raised this point now

Many lenders restrict on construction types - do you have a specific question we can help with?So many glitches, so little time...0

The thing I would worry about assuming you can get a mortgage is the mortgage companies changing their criteria making your property unmortgageable in the future (says the voice of experience who had this happen in a property with mundic)0

Pop the postcode in here and call the local surveyor.

Whilst Colleys are owned by Lloyds Banking Group (Halifax etc) they will be on other lenders panels. If you give them the details of the propert they may be able to tell you which lenders would be happy to lend.0
