I spoke to my conveyancers about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: In terms of surveyors - how do I go about finding one?

The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the house buying process is for our conveyancing practitioners 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 solicitors it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new property title number is not known. Is it right that we have to hold on until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
