My partner and I are acquiring a garden flat in Ambleside which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the vendor is in the process of extending the lease. The seller’s lawyer has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the house buying process is for our conveyancers to do OS1 search on the property title. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our solicitors it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number has not been issued. Is it right that we have to hold on pending registration of the new lease?
