FTB Solar Panels and Queries

As an update the solicitors are finally happy with the solar panels. Thank you again for the advice about the FIT stuff as that seems to have weekend.
They've gone back with one last query about access to the back of the garden. Not sure why they couldn't ask that with the last set of questions, so they have a limit on how many they can ask in one go?
Either way the end is in sight. Please send positive vibes that my sols take mercy on me and feel whatever answer they get is "satisfactory".2 -
Remember that the solicitors aren't trying to ruin your chances of buying the property, they are looking out for you and for any potential pitfalls that might not be immediately obvious to you.What if you had bought the house and a week later some random company turns up because they have leased your roofspace for the next 20 years and can do anything they want on your new home?!What if you find that your back garden is also a public right of way and you have people walking through it every day!Let your solicitors do their job.2

You're right and I do apologise if my original comment had come off as salty or sarcastic, that was never the intention. I am not trained to be a solicitor so I do not know most of what goes on behind the scenes. I think that there are problems with my solicitors, but more of a ways of working issue than a doing their job issue that I won't go into here.NameUnavailable said:Remember that the solicitors aren't trying to ruin your chances of buying the property, they are looking out for you and for any potential pitfalls that might not be immediately obvious to you.What if you had bought the house and a week later some random company turns up because they have leased your roofspace for the next 20 years and can do anything they want on your new home?!What if you find that your back garden is also a public right of way and you have people walking through it every day!Let your solicitors do their job.
I am still cheering them on
