Professional Consultant’s Certificate
Lenders will generally only lend on a newly built, converted or renovated property where the property is covered by a warranty scheme or a Professional Consultant's Certificate (PCC). We can offer this type of architectural certification for mortgage purposes. The PCC will confirm to the lender or its conveyencer that we:
Basic
have visited the property during construction to check its progress, its conformity with drawings approved under building regulations and its conformity with drawings/instructions issued under the building contract;
Intermediate
will remain liable to the first purchasers and their lender and subsequent purchasers and lenders for the period of 6 years from the date of the certificate;
Intermediate
have appropriate experience in the design and/or monitoring of the construction and conversion of residential buildings; and
Advanced
will keep a certain level of professional indemnity insurance in force to cover their liabilities under the certificate.
