  • My wife and I are purchasing a studio flat in Clifton Village which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller commenced extending the lease. The vendor has submitted the lease extension paperwork which will result in the registration of a new lease at the land registry. A crucial aspect of the house buying process is for our to do a pre-completion search on the lease. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new property title number has not been issued. Is it right that we have to wait pending registration of the new lease?

I'm also thinking that I'll probably have to go down the tribunal route. Can you recommend a good who specialises in lease extensions?
