Nationwide now shows valuer assumptions about the property and title in the Conditions section of the mortgage offer for England and Wales, and no further referral is needed where the valuer has already considered a matter unless your investigation reveals material differences or undisclosed adverse provisions. A valid EPC must now be obtained and kept on file before exchange for purchases.

Nationwide Building Society updated its England and Wales lease answers on lease extensions. Where a proposed lease extension does not meet its criteria but you consider it in the best interest of the mutual client, all details must now be referred to the Issuing Office for it to consider.

Nationwide has removed from its England and Wales lease indemnity answer (5.14.11) the paragraph on ground rents above 250 pounds a year (1000 pounds in Greater London), which covered forfeiture risk under the Housing Act 1988 and accepted a Certificate of Title as proof of a remedy. The listed options now apply wherever a Deed of Variation or Side Agreement is needed.

Nationwide has added England and Wales guidance on Climate Hazard Reports, saying only medium/moderate or high risks need reporting with the full report attached, plus a note that A1 rated EWS1 forms need not be notified. Its rules on unadopted and private roads (6.8.1) and on missing easements (6.9.1) have been substantially rewritten, and the side agreement template has been relaxed.
