  • We are purchasing a maisonette in Neath which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the owner commenced dealing with a lease extension. The seller’s lawyer has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the house buying process is for our conveyancers to do a "priority search" on the property title. 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 correct that we must hold on pending registration of the new lease?
