  • My fiance and I are are hoping to complete on a garden flat in Dunvant which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low 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. An essential part of the house buying process is for our solicitors to do OS1 search on the lease. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our lawyers 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 be patient pending registration of the new lease?
  • We currently own a one bedroom apartment in Dunvant and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has seventy three years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 20k plus to get a lease extension. Do you have some advice on this? Do I contact the landlord first and will they be able to give me a cost?
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my one bedroom apartment in Dunvant. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point then. Unfortunately the current lease is now very short and therefore I'm guessing it'll be expensive to extend. I'm also thinking that I'll probably have to go down the tribunal route. Should I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
