  • Me and my fiance are acquiring a one bedroom ground floor purpose built flat in Langstone which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the vendor commenced dealing with a lease extension. The seller’s lawyer has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the conveyancing process is for our solicitors to do a pre-completion search on the lease. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our property lawyers it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number has not been issued. Is it correct that we have to be patient pending registration of the new lease?

Therefore is seems worth taking risk of not having formal valuation and base the initial offer on previous premiums paid . This would save on double valuation fees. Would you suggest this course of action?
