  • Me and my partner are acquiring a two bedroom second floor purpose built flat in Leiston which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the vendor commenced extending the lease. The vendor has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the house buying process is for our to do a "priority 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 lease title number is not known. Is it right that we must be patient until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
