Nationwide Building Society Issuing Office and for Resale Restrictions and Special Schemes please also ensure the scheme complies with our requirements as documented on our website at nationwide.co.uk/-/media/MainSite/documents/about/media-centre-and-specialist-areas/information-for-lawyers/low-cost-home-ownership-special-schemes.pdf. Please advise us if the restriction does not meet our requirements as the case will not be able to proceed.

Overage agreements will only be acceptable if: -
They are made subject to our Standard Security/Charge. Our Standard Security/Charge must have priority over the overage agreement/any related Standard Security/Charge. If the overage agreement/related Standard Security/Charge is already in place, it must be postponed so that Nationwide’s interest ranks in priority.

Any existing overage agreement {and/or restriction} that does not comply with the foregoing will need to be amended on or before completion.

If the overage agreement relates to developing new units/buildings on the land, we do not need to be advised. If the agreement relates to the current building (for example developing it into flats, adding an extension or conservatory, or a loft conversion) please advise us of the terms of the overage agreement and the relative Standard Security/Charge in plain English. This material fact will be assessed to ascertain if we wish to amend or withdraw our offer.

Right to Buys: Acceptable if the pre-emption is for the Council to purchase at market value and the Council must complete the purchase within 20 weeks.
