  • My partner and I are are hoping to complete on a studio flat in Manor Park which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the owner commenced extending the lease. The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the conveyancing process is for our property lawyers to do a "priority search" on the property title. The problem 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 must wait pending registration of the new lease?
  • My wife and I are concerned about getting a lease extension from an objectionable landlord. Regardless of the fact that the legal procedures were followed under the 1993 Act, the freeholder still tried to get ground rent of £250 doubling every twenty years of the new term. Can you assist?
  • My wife and I are aware that others in the same block previously had a lease extension, and the freeholder was amenable. It therefore appears worth taking risk of not having formal valuation and base the initial offer on previous prices . This would save on double valuation fees. Would you suggest such a course of action?
