Do "rent-a-roof" people ever show up?
Bought a house in 2022 with solar panels on the roof installed according to a "rent-a-roof" agreement signed by the previous owners. They were installed in 2011 and the agreement is set to run 25 years, though there is a buy-out clause (which is still thousands of pounds I'd rather not spend).
The rental agreement required a variation for us to get a mortgage on the house that took ages for us to get a response on (it was the main block on conveyancing for the house, meaning it took 10 months to finish). However, they did in the end respond so I assume they know we own the house now.
However, since then we've heard absolutely zero from the rent-a-roof company. Nothing. We do still get post for the previous owners, which I've always just marked "not known at this address" and put back in the post box, so it's possible they sent something marked as being for them, but we've heard nothing addressed to us from these guys. We don't even know if the panels are still working since there's no obvious meter or anything saying what the output of the panels is.
Frankly I'm happy to let sleeping dogs lie, but has anyone ever had these guys actually show up? Theoretically they have to have access to the property and all sorts of other things under the agreement, and I've wondered if they could just show up one day demanding access to the house.
